Comparing this cancel to the 25 Nov 1971 cancel, there is a difference in the spacing at the bottom. While the (N) is centered at the bottom, the "A" is closer to the (N) then the 1971 cancel. The dark line in the cancel shows it is held on by a rubber band to the handle. Add-on cachet by [[Cachet_Maker_Richard_F_Hoffner_ | Richard F. Hoffner]].

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.


    Enterprise Class Nuclear-Powered Attack Carrier
    Keel Laid 4 February 1958 - Launched & Christened 24 September 1960

  1. USS ENTERPRISE CVA(N)-65
    Commissioned 25 November 1961

  2. USS ENTERPRISE CVN-65
    Redesignated Aircraft Carrier (Nuclear) (CVN) 1 July 1975
    Deactivated 1 December 2012 - Decommissioned 3 February 2017

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. USS Enterprise CVAN-65 / CVN-65 Covers Page 1    (1961-2012)

 

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.

Comparing this cancel to the 25 Nov 1971 cancel, there is a difference in the spacing at the bottom. While the (N) is centered at the bottom, the "A" is closer to the (N) then the 1971 cancel. The dark line in the cancel shows it is held on by a rubber band to the handle. Add-on cachet by Richard F. Hoffner.
