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.
- 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 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.

Additional Naming History Sources
This SSMaritime.com page has good history on the liners belonging to the ZIM Israel Navigation Company.

contains more history especially while the ship was named DERECKTOR.
"Lloyd’s Register of Shipping 1949 A-L" has three separate entries for name changes that occurred in 1948 - part of which appears to be
an attempt to account for changes during WWII.
- Page 419 has the first entry which is for "De Witt Clinton". The owner is listed as Samuel Derecktor and the ship is registered in New York with United States registry. There is also the notation: Now "Col. Frederick C. Johnson - see No. 90024 in Supplement"
