    This is actually USS Saratoga (CV-3), note the lower mounted searchlight platforms on the starboard side of the funnel, as compared to her sister ship, USS Lexington (CV-2), whose searchlight platforms were mounted closer to the top of the funnel. It is easy to see why the Navy would subsequently paint a vertical stipe on Saratoga's funnel and a horizontal stripe at the top of Lexington's funnel to ease identification of the ships. Here's a SDASM photo of USS Lexington (CV-2) for comparison: www.flickr.com/photos/sdasmarchives/40227510871/

    Agree, this is definitely Saratoga. In fact, it is taken on her initial transit to the pacific, 7 February 1928, and is in the collections of the USN at NARA under accession # 80-G-216837
