Step back in time to 1898 with this black and white film capturing a poignant scene in Havana Harbor. Filmed from a moving launch, witness the wreckage of the USS Maine, surrounded by wrecking boats and other vessels. The twisted remains serve as a stark reminder of the tragic explosion that rocked the ship. As the launch maneuvers, a panoramic view of Havana Harbor's shores adds depth to the haunting imagery.
