A PT boat (short for patrol torpedo boat) was a motor torpedo boat used by the United States Navy in World War II. It was small, fast, and inexpensive to build, valued for its maneuverability and speed. The Elco Naval Division boats were the longest of the three types of PT boats built for the Navy and used during World War II. By war's end, more of the Elco 80 ft boats were built than any other type of motor torpedo boat. If you know who did the art (if any), please let us know. Condition: good. There are some creases and tears of varying lengths around the edges of the poster (a few are repaired with tape from the back).
