| Description | Lot-2263-13: USS Wasp (CV-7), July 11, 1942. Shellback. It looks as if the crewman is emerging as a “shellback” after a rollicking initiation at the hands of the followers of Neptunus Rex. Even in wartime, with adequate guard posted, Neptunus Rex occasionally finds time to hold his traditional court for the crossing of the equatorial line. Official U.S. Navy Photograph. Courtesy of the Library of Congress. (2018/06/01). Photographed through Mylar sleeve. |
