No need to resend anything, Tom, as a lot of cancel requests have been pouring in, mostly incoming Apollo 11 cancel mail. Hoping to get a lot of the requests handled within the next few days, but there is so much to do.

About a month ago I submitted three covers for the commemorative cancellations from KSC, JSC, and USS Hornet. The USS Hornet cancellation came back within about 2-3 weeks, followed by the KSC one that was not cancelled. I'm still waiting for the Houston one and Ken thanks for the update.

Regarding the KSC one for 16 July, I thought I was well within the deadline of sending on 13 August, but received a note from the Postmaster stating that they no longer had that style and couldn't fulfill my request.

Has anybody received their July 16 pictorial cancels back from KSC? I sent mine on August 9, 2019.

Yes, actually quite fast. Had sent them in early July, got them back by late July.

The other KSC cancels or the CC postmarks for which I needed the new stamps were sent much later, and still haven't returned.

In an email from ken Havekotte, he told me to be patient when it comes to the CC cancel used for Apollo 11 anniversary. The office was inundated with many requests. They have many to fulfill.
