Item Description

Grading Standard:	1st Generation AKA Original Real-Photo
Size:	10x8 inches (paper size) with some minor variation.
Other Notes:	Beautiful photo that came out of a retired US Navy officers collection and was research material for a book he was writing on US Navy Flag Officers. Often Thomas Gaffney would write the officer directly to obtain the photo or would get them from official sources. In some rare cases the photo came directly from family members. Also, included in most cases is a short biography and sometimes personal correspondence. This group comes with original official photo, official letter and Biography. Rear Admiral Lawrence Gies, in 1967 took command Carrier Division Four aboard the USS America CVA-66. Do not expect perfect photos. Often old photos have small creases and tears around the edges.
