Gelatin silver photograph. 20.3x25.4 cm (8x10").
Inscribed on reverse is the statement "From Original Negative developed aboard the USS Curtis [sic] Feb. 23, 1945. The negative was brought aboard the USS Curtiss anchored at Saipan. It was developed and printed by Jack Breed, head of the photo lab and Flag Lieutenant to Vice Admiral Hoover, Commander Forward." The photograph by Joe Rosenthal, one of the iconic images of World War II, and particularly of the conflict in the Pacific, still resonates through our consciousness more than a half-century after the event.

Some rippling to photograph with silvering to the darker hues; very good.
