I truly love Black and White picture, specially if they have some historic view, Yesterday at my local Value village i found few of them all black and white, war ships, not really well frame, so i discard the frame, and realize they all mark on the back, as follow.

This one is 12 inches X 9 inches.
Many thanks for looking.
I shall guess a heavy cruiser of WWII or 1920s vintages in the dazzle camouflage scheme. Dazzle was meant to confuse range finders on subs.
Proceeding to look up the type of ship now.
Kent class heavy cruiser 1926
