<br />
Cachets should be listed in chronological order based on earliest known usage. Use <br />
the postmark date or best guess. This applies to add-on cachets as well.<br/><br/><br />

"These covers feature postage stamps of 5 countries, France, China, Japan, Italy and England. Each stamp bears a “cancellation” from a ship. In fact enclosed in the envelope* is a carbon copy slip of paper noting the HMS Bee (English gunboat, Command ship), RIN Lepanto (Italian gunboat), Francis Garnier (French gunboat), HIJMS Iwate (Japanese gunboat) and Chutai (Chinese gunboat). The slip also notes that the American Navy gunboat may vary, as noted by a series of question marks. The slip notes that these are men of war ships in the Shanghai harbor and that there are various ships in the harbor at all times. However close examination of the stamps shows that they also bear previous postmarks and were removed from other envelopes and glued to the cover and then “cancelled” with the ship cancellations.<br/>To end the suspense, the foreign ship cancellations are in fact not real, but are fanciful designs used to create an attractive cachet. These ships did not have post offices and these designs were not used aboard these ships." Steve Shay, USCS.<br/>(*USS Sacramento PG-19 cover dated January 29, 1936.)<br />
