They are, indeed, collectible. What are the dimensions on the panoramic Hopkins crew? Same for the Maine, and what is the photographer, or publisher information on them? Are the action views aboard the Hopkins?
I'm always pleased to see photos of the White Fleet.
Not sure about the action shots. I got these from my grandfathers estate, he was executor of an estate and these ended up in his old garage. The gentleman was a navy captain in the 40s and his commendation is framed too. I'm assuming these earlier photos are from his fathers ships.
Thanks.

Nokta FoRs Gold, a Gold Cube, 2 Keene Sluices and Lord only knows how many pans....not to mention a load of other gear my wife still doesn't know about!
Much more valuable than you might imagine Tom. If there is a
collection, it might be worth taking to a good auction house
and let them do some marketing on it before it comes to
auction.
