Black and white photo 8"h x 10"w of a painting of the sloop of war St. Mary's firing on a slaver by Charles Robert Patterson as photographed by Morris Rosenfeld. The reproduction was used for a bank calendar in 1962. The sloop was built in 1843-44 at the Washington Navy Yard and was named for St. Mary's County. In 1874 she was retired from active naval service and became a training ship for the state of New York. She was decommissioned in 1908. There is a long discussion of her career on a separate sheet in the sleeve.
