Description

*British, WW1, HM Submarine E14 – Original Photograph with Royal Navy Copyright*

Original Photograph of WW1 Submarine E14. This photograph originally formed part of the Lou Britton British Submarine Collection, which was acquired by the Royal Navy Submarine Museum, Gosport in 2007.

Approximate Dimensions: 17.8cm x 12.8cm. Stamped on the Back: "Photo archive. Neg No 1895. Copyright Reserved. Not to be reproduced without Prior Written Permission of The Royal Navy Submarine Museum."

HMS E14 was a British E-class submarine built by Vickers, Barrow-in-Furness, during World War I. Two of her captains were awarded the Victoria Cross, and many of her crew were decorated. Laid down on 14 December 1912 and commissioned on 18 November 1914, E14 cost £105,700. She was sunk by shellfire from coastal batteries in the Dardanelles on 28 January 1918.

Design
E14 had a displacement of 662 long tons (673 t) on the surface and 807 long tons (820 t) submerged. She was 180 feet (55 m) long with a beam of 22 feet 8.5 inches (6.92 m). Powered by two 800 hp diesel engines and two 420 hp electric motors, E14 reached a maximum surface speed of 16 knots (30 km/h) and 10 knots submerged. She had a range of 3,255 miles (5,238 km) at 10 knots and could operate submerged for up to five hours at 5 knots. Initially without a deck gun, E14 later had a 6-pounder QF gun mounted. She carried five 18-inch (450 mm) torpedo tubes and 10 torpedoes.

Service History
E14 played a pivotal role in breaking into the Sea of Marmara on 27 April 1915. She sank the Turkish gunboat Nurel Bahr on 1 May and damaged the minelayer Peik I Shevket. On 3 May, she torpedoed the transport ship Gul Djemal, carrying 4,000 soldiers. For these actions, her captain, Lieutenant Commander Edward Courtney Boyle, received the Victoria Cross, while other crew members were awarded Distinguished Service Crosses and Medals.

Later, under the command of Lieutenant Commander Geoffrey Saxton White, E14 attempted to finish off the Turkish battlecruiser Goeben. However, on 28 January 1918, after a premature torpedo explosion, E14 was forced to surface and was severely damaged. She was eventually sunk by coastal battery fire off Kumkale, with White and most of the crew killed.

Wreck
In June 2012, the wreck of E14 was discovered off Kum Kale, 250 meters from the shore, by Turkish engineer Selçuk Kolay and filmmaker Savas Karakas. The wreck, mostly buried in sand, is marked by a coral-encrusted bow with a shell hole. The British government has requested that the site be respected as a war grave.

Excellent used condition. Please see photographs as part of the condition report.
