Covers should be listed in chronological order. Use the postmark date or best guess.<br />
<br/>&nbsp;<br/><br />
<br/>&nbsp;<br/><br />
Each entry provides a link to the image of the front of the cover. There is also <br />
the option to have a link to the image of the back of the cover if there is anything <br />
of significance there. Finally, there is the primary date for the cover and the <br />
classification types for all postmarks based on the [[Locy_System | Locy System]].<br />
