Few American warships of the 1890s drew as much attention as the U.S.S. *Indiana*, the lead ship of the Navy's first class of battleships built to a modern design. This photoprint, numbered 597 and copyrighted by Charles E. Bolles, shows the ship around 1896, a year or so after she entered service. *Indiana* later fought in the Spanish-American War of 1898, taking part in the fighting off Santiago, Cuba. The caption card's date is unverified, so "c1896" should be read as approximate.
