Revision as of 05:33, 23 December 2015
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.
- St. Louis Class Protected Cruiser
- USS CHARLESTON Protected Cruiser No. 22
Commissioned October 17 1905 - Decommissioned October 8 1910
Recommissioned September 14 1912
- USS CHARLESTON CA-19
Designated (CA) July 17 1920
Decommissioned December 4 1923
Sold March 6 1930 to The Powell River Co., British Columbia, Canada
Used as a breakwater
Keel Laid January 30 1902 - Launched January 23 1904
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.
- Charleston Covers Page 1 (1909-19)
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.
