Some amazingly good looking images in this collection. I love it when things like this get found and published: http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/u-s-navy-reveals-dozens-rare-spanish-american-war-photographs-n100686
The full 40 odd images are here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/navalhistory/sets/72157644224605974
The photographers of this period were the pioneers to whom I think we owe a lot of respect. The chemicals, the exposures, size of the cameras and glass plates must have been a logistical nightmare for transporting their craft.
