Postcard: USS Connecticut BB-18 (possibly 1908, see below)
Since the Connecticut was decommissioned in 1922 it is extremely unlikely the postcard was printed afterward. Unmarked postcard. Postcards were not usually marked with a year of copyright.
According to the Wikipedia article on en:USS Connecticut (BB-18), " On May 8, 1908, the Atlantic Fleet joined the Pacific Fleet in San Francisco Bay for a review by the Secretary of the Navy" It is extremely likely that the postcard was published at the time of that visit, a common practice.
The same Web page that showed a picture of the front of the postcard showed a picture of the back, which was divided and listed postage as: "Place Stamp Here / Domestic / One Cent / Foreign / Two Cents"
The back also said: "Edward H. Mitchel, publisher, San Francisco"
