Purchased from Walkabout Books, July 2020.
A group of six photographs showing a baseball game being played in Honolulu, Hawaii, 1922,
between U.S. Navy teams from the U.S.S. Burns and the U.S.S. Stribling, which were stationed
at Pearl Harbor. The images have the credit of Tai Sing Loo, a well-known Chinese-American
photographer based in Hawaii, who served as one of the official Navy photographers from 1919
to 1949. There are two group photographs of team members wearing "Burns" uniforms, action
scenes, sailors cheering in the bleachers, and an overview of the newly-constructed field
titled "Pearl Harbor Baseball Field."
