Title: Unidentified vessel, probably a German merchant ship, circa 1914-1916
Caption: An unidentified vessel photographed in about 1914-1916, probably in German waters. The original print carries the caption "Hilfskreuzer WOLF," the auxiliary cruiser (ex-Merchant WACHTFELS, 1913-1931); however, this is not WOLF. WOLF was a larger ship with different features.
