I need your submarine museum boat photos!

Everyone,

I would like to put together a computerized revolving pictorial presentation to be part of Lockwood Internet Base's "Memorial Submarine Display Table" at the 2008 USSVI Convention in September. I'm hoping this will bring attention to the table and get people to stop for a while to check out what all the table will have to offer. I am asking anyone and everyone to email me recent (in the last few years) photographs from any of the submarine museum boats, including:

USS Cod (SS-224)
USS Drum (SS-228)
USS Silversides (SS-236)
USS Cavalla (SS-244)
USS Cobia (SS-245)
USS Croaker (SS-246)
USS Bowfin (SS-287)
USS Ling (SS-297)
USS Lionfish (SS-298)
USS Batfish (SS-310)
USS Becuna (SS-319)
USS Clamagore (SS-343)
USS Pampanito (SS-383)
USS Razorback (SS-394)
USS Torsk (SS-423)
USS Requin (SS-481)
USS Marlin (SST-2)
USS Albacore (AGSS-569)
USS Nautilus (SSN-571)
USS Growler (SSG-577)
USS Blueback (SS-581)
USS Dolphin (AGSS-555)
U-505 (German)
K-77 (Russian)
B-39 (Russian)
B-427 (Russian)

Please send any photos to SUBMARINEMUSEUMS@Gmail.com and if possible, include the following:
1) Submarine name?
2) What is happening in the photo, or what is the event taking place in the photo, or who is in the photo? (whichever is/are applicable)
2) Who took the photograph? (if you know)
3) When was the photograph taken? (approximately is fine)

Before and after pictures of any restoration effort (painting, cleaning, repairing, etc) will greatly be appreciated. Special events are a plus too. Good indoor and outdoor shots are welcomed as well. Yes, I want any photographs!

I'll accept any and all photographs, but please DO NOT SEND copyrighted photographs unless it has been approved to do so. Don't worry about size, the bigger the better and I'll resize to what is needed. The maximum attachment size limit for Gmail is 20 megabytes, so please keep single email attachments to something smaller than that and send multiple emails with attachments if you need to.

If I can keep the filesize small on the end resulting presentation, I hope to make it downloadable to the public. With your permission I would also like to use any of your photographs on the SUBMARINEMUSEUMS.ORG website. If you have any questions please ask.

I'll only be able to work with what I'm given, so please send me anything you have. Once again, the email address is:

SUBMARINEMUSEUMS@Gmail.com

Snakeyez-
I sent you an e-mail with some recent photos of the USS Batfish from a trip my son and I took in July 2009.
Hope they will help.

You're free to use any of the ones from my other thread here about U-505. I'll be at the Pampanito at the end of next month. I'll be sure to take lots of pictures there!

Wow guys, I started this thread back in mid-2008 in preparation for the 2008 USSVI national convention. I did manage to put together a decent presentation thanks to the help of many, many people.

Feel free to still email me any photos you have of the above listed museum submarines. There may be a need for an updated presentation at a future convention or something.

Don't forget to check out the SUBMARINEMUSEUMS.ORG website too!

I did and I appreciate it. Interesting to see the B-39 as it was before it moved to San Diego.

Use whatever you find useful from this collection I took a couple of years ago: http://s198.photobucket.com/albums/a...0Museum%20SFO/

If you need hi-res shots I can send whatever you want copies of via e-mail.

It appears to be password protected or something.

If you are still looking for these, I have some nice shots of the Cobia in Manitowoc.
