USS Constitution at unknown location and date. Possibly during her tour of the US between 1931 and 1933. No indication of photographer's name. I find it hard not to buy any photo of this that I come across, love that ship.
located on the both the Piscataqua river and the Atlantic Ocean. Here's the history lesson, formerly known as Fort William and Mary was a British held munitions depot.

Patty Schweitzer scans a QR code with her iPhone Friday, Nov. 14, 2014, at the Simonsen Ninth Grade Center in Jefferson City, Missouri. Ninth grade students Caleb McClain, Mackenzie Jenkins, Petra Andrei and Taylor Burkhead led a multimedia presentation of 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that gave women the right to vote. One of these multimedia components, the QR code, led Schweitzer to a video of Lady Gaga's rendition of the women's suffrage movement.
