Summary[edit]

Description First salvaging submarine and the mother ship Tube encloses stairway to submarine - Another instance where the submarine is proving its right to exist in a civilized world is in salvaging of sunken ships. Formerly, divers worked strenuously at the bottom of the sea and as it was necessary for them to come up often the work progressed slowly. The salvaging submarine invented by Simon Lake, changes all this. It can stay submerged for many hours, making the work of the divers much easier. Photo was taken in the harbor of Bridgeport, Conn,
