Title
English: U.S.S. Nebraska launching, October 7, 1904
Description
English: In 1904, the Moran Brothers shipyard in Seattle launched the battleship "Nebraska." This vessel was the first steel ship to be built on Puget Sound and the first naval battleship to be built in the Pacific Northwest. At the launching, bands played, people cheered, dignitaries made speeches, and the daughter of the Governor of Nebraska christened the vessel with a bottle of champagne.

This October 7, 1904 photo shows the launching of the battleship "Nebraska" at the Moran Brothers Company shipyard in Seattle. The vessel's interior and superstructure were completed after the launching.
