At random: Interests in submarines extends to royalty and presidents. The King of England and the King and Queen of Spain are among those who have made submerged cruises in submarines. As a result of a trip in an early United States submarine, President "Teddy" Roosevelt ordered extra compensation for personnel serving in the "Silent Service." President Harry Truman made a 440 foot dive in a captured German submarine. The first President to cruise aboard a nuclear submarine was President Eisenhower who rode the USS SEAWOLF out of Newport, Rhode Island on September 26, 1957.

Nice drawing.
This is the British "Holland 1". built under license by Vickers in 1901. It is a "Plunger" (or USS A-1) design. Not the USS Holland SS-1. The Holland had Forward and Aft "Dynamite Guns" which are missing from this drawing. It also has a "Head" that the Holland didn't.
Thanks for posting.
