NAVAL BASE KITSAP (KITSAP COUNTY). Uncaptioned circa-1910 sepia-tone Azo (triangles up) real photo postcard picturing 3 sailors seated on the cow-catcher of a U. S. Navy Railroad steam locomotive. That railroad is also known as the Navy Railroad & the Naval Railroad; it is used to ship ordinance & supplies among the widespread portions of Naval Base Kitsap (located in Kitsap, Mason & Jefferson Counties Washington). Lengthy message on back reads 'This picture was taken in a place called Chicago(sic) Wn. near Seattle Wn. where we were camped in a woods.' Chico is about 17 miles west of Seattle, over water, and near Bremerton where the Navy Yards are, in Kitsap County. Strictly speaking Chico is not a part of Naval Base Kitsap, but it could well have been the only nearby place that the sailor writing on the back knew. These sailors might have been on rest & recreation while their ship was being fixed, and it is easy to see how they could get the name of such a small place wrong. Obviously one-of-a-kind. Sold but front side still available for scholarly study & research as an enlarged 300-dpi scan (publication quality) in .jpg format for $3.75. w(c)m(n)r(u)
