Ship Name and Designation History

This section lists the names and designations that the ship had during its lifetime. The list is in chronological order.


    Denver Class Cruiser
    Keel Laid January 19 1901 - Launched January 23 1903

  1. USS GALVESTON Cruiser No. 17
    Commissioned February 15 1905 - Decommissioned February 21 1910
    Recommissioned June 29 1912

  2. USS GALVESTON PG-31
    Designated Gunboat (PG) July 17 1920

  3. USS GALVESTON CL-19
    Reclassified Light Cruiser (CL) August 8 1921
    Decommissioned November 20 1923
    Recommissioned February 5 1924 - Decommissioned September 2 1930

    Struck from Naval Register November 1 1930
    Sold September 13 1933 for scrap

 

Naval Covers

This section lists active links to the pages displaying covers associated with the ship. There should be a separate set of pages for each incarnation of the ship (ie, for each entry in the "Ship Name and Designation History" section). Covers should be presented in chronological order (or as best as can be determined).

Since a ship may have many covers, they may be split among many pages so it doesn't take forever for the pages to load. Each page link should be accompanied by a date range for covers on that page.

  1. Covers Page 1    (1917-30)

 

Postmarks

This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a separate set of postmarks for each incarnation of the ship (ie, for each entry in the "Ship Name and Designation History" section). Within each set, the postmarks should be listed in order of their classification type. If more than one postmark has the same classification, then they should be further sorted by date of earliest known usage.

A postmark should not be included unless accompanied by a close-up image and/or an image of a cover showing that postmark. Date ranges MUST be based ONLY ON COVERS IN THE MUSEUM and are expected to change as more covers are added.
 
>>> If you have a better example for any of the postmarks, please feel free to replace the existing example.
