A fine collection of warships at the Boston Navy Yard on June 21, 1934.

The New York class dreadnoughts USS New York (BB-34) (Bottom) and USS Texas (BB-35) (Top) are the most prominent.

At the bottom of the photo is USS Constitution, "Old Ironsides" herself. Between Constitution and the battleships is the French aviso d'Entrecasteux of the Bougainville class, visiting the the United States.

The four ships above the dreadnoughts inclide the destroyer USS Farragut (DD-348) that is the furthest away. The two ships tied up on the same peir include a Lake class cutter (Left) and a Tampa class cutter (Right) of the US Coast Guard. Finally, we have the patrol boat USS Eagle 19 (PE-19) that is closest to the battleships.
