Covers should be listed in chronological order. Use the postmark date or best guess.

'''Note:''' The USS/HPS NICOTINE is a creation of an unknown person or persons and was reported weekly in the "Western Stamp Collector" newspaper by Desmond Jagyi in his "About Naval Covers" column. Reading the old papers, there are more NICOTINE covers created but they have not been located yet.

<br/> <br/>
Each entry provides a link to the image of the front of the cover. There is also
the option to have a link to the image of the back of the cover if there is anything
of significance there. Finally, there is the primary date for the cover and the
classification types for all postmarks based on the [[Locy_System | Locy System]].
