Anchored off New York City during the October 1912 naval review.
Postal card published circa the 19-"teens", featuring a retouched and color-tinted photograph taken off New York City during the October 1912 naval review.
Colors applied to the ship's smokestacks and guns are quite inaccurate. In 1912 these would have been grey, not "buff".

October, 1916 photo off Boston shows standard
pre-dreadnought modifications. These included a cut down bridgework,
canvas covering at her conning position and wheel house, and unarmored
turret mounted range finders. As with the Indiana (BB-1), the Kearsarge (BB-5) was also
plagued with a low freeboard. Cage masts have replaced her original
fighting masts for better long distance salvo spotting and stability. |
