Daddy on the Deck of the F-6 Submarine
![Daddy on the Deck of the F-6 Submarine Daddy on the Deck of the F-6 Submarine](https://cdn.ipernity.com/129/73/93/30517393.956bd2ed.640.jpg?r2)

A real photo postcard showing "Daddy" (handwritten in the upper left-hand corner) posing on the deck of an "F-6" submarine. Although the postcard is heavily soiled and some details of the painted scene in the background are difficult to make out, it appears that there are two or three ships floating (or sinking?) in the heavy waves behind the sub, while smoke billows from the smokestacks of a ship that's visible on the horizon at left. Meanwhile, two or three biplanes and an airship are visible in the sky above.
The "F-6" hull number on the submarine is puzzling, but perhaps it's intended to refer to the U.S. Navy's submarine no. 6, the USS Pike, which saw service between 1903 and 1922. For more information, see the Navy Historical Center's page regarding USS Pike (Submarine # 6, later SS-6), 1903-1922 and Wikipedia's article on USS Pike (SS-6).

A fascinating piece. Lots of things to look at, and the contrast between the artificiality of the scenery and the obvious reality of Daddy is engaging.
