Not original, Red. The title reads “Newly colorized images have brought home the full horror of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on the 76th anniversary of the assault (pictured, the USS West Virginia, which was hit by seven torpedoes)”

The photographs are the work of Cardiff-based British electrician, Royston Leonard, 55, who painstakingly added color to the images: ‘The photos show what was an island at peace hit by the horror of war.

It’s just that his work is well above the average colorizing.

I have that picture in front of me. It's in a book " The Universal History of the World; WW II and The Aftermath, Volume 15, on page 1255"; author Edna Ritchie published through the Golden Press, New York, 1966.

Unless Roy painstakingly painted the picture between 1 and 4 years of age, he didn't paint it. ...It's in its original color.
