Ship Name and Designation History

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. Trippe Covers Page 1    (1975)

 

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.

NAMESAKE - John Trippe (1785 - 1810)
Trippe became a Midshipman in the U.S. Navy in April 1799 and had service afloat in the Frigate USS CONSTITUTION and Schooner EXPERIMENT during the Quasi-War with France. In 1801 and 1802 Midshipman Trippe served in the Frigate PRESIDENT in the Mediterranean Sea. Promoted to Master in May 1803, he returned to the Mediterranean in the Schooner VIXEN and performed distinguished service during the war with Tripoli, commanding Gunboat Number 6 during battles off the enemy port in August and September 1804. In 1808, following promotion to Lieutenant, he was stationed at Charleston, South Carolina, and during the next year he commanded the Schooner ENTERPRISE on a voyage to the Netherlands. Lieutenant Trippe next commanded VIXEN during a Caribbean cruise, beginning in May 1810. On June 24 he courageously handled a challenge by a British warship. A few weeks later, while sailing from Havana, Cuba, to New Orleans, Lieutenant John Trippe died on board VIXEN
