	The society issues approximately three to four covers each year which commemorate specific naval events. Each cover consists of an envelope with an artist's picture in full colour, with a stamp (or stamps) from recent commemorative issues franked by a special hand stamp authorised by the National Post Office. Ship or squadron badges, or relevant military decorations, are often featured on the cover. Text sheets will, and photocards may accompany each cover. Whenever possible, should it be appropriate, Royal Naval Souvenir Covers (RNSC's) are issued at foreign Post Offices.
