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.
- Sidewheel Steamer Gunboat
- USS MICHIGAN (Gunboat) Commissioned 29 September 1844
- USS WOLVERINE (Gunboat) Renamed 17 June 1905 to clear the name for Battleship No. 27
- WOLVERINE IX-31 Designated (IX) 17 July 1920
Keel Laid 1841 - Launched 5 December 1843
Decommissioned 6 May 1912
Turned over to the Pennsylvania Naval Militia as Training Ship 1912
Mechanical problems ended her active career 12 August 1923
Loaned 1927 to the city of Erie as a relic
Sold 19 July 1948 to the Foundation for the Preservation of the Original USS Michigan, Inc.

This section lists active links to the pages displaying covers associated with the ship. There should be a separate set of pages for each name of the ship (for example, Bushnell AG-32 / Sumner AGS-5 are different names for the same ship so there should be one set of pages for Bushnell and one set for Sumner). 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.
- Covers Page 1 (DATE RANGE)
Postmarks
This section lists examples of the postmarks used by the ship. There should be a separate set of postmarks for each name and/or commissioning period. 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.
