Dry Dock, Charlestown Navy Yard
Bring a little Charlestown home.
Die-Cut Sticker · White · 4 × 4 inches
Before heading out, pick up your notebook or smooth case, with this small view attached to something already in use. Charlestown Navy Yard's dry dock is empty in this stereograph, with the basin itself rather than a vessel giving the picture its focus.
A stereograph published circa 1850-1920 shows empty basin; distinct operational state from occupied dock. The yard's piers and buildings connect this particular view to Boston's history of shipbuilding, repair and harbor work. They preserve a working waterfront at the time of the source.
The empty dock connects naval work with the structure that made maintenance possible, showing a working facility at a particular operational stage. Use it on a suitable smooth cover or case, keeping the picture in sight as the item goes from desk to bag.
