With the help of Mr. Clayton Love, jnr., member of the Committee of Management, who was Admiral of the Royal Cork Yacht Club at the time, the Dublin Office has acquired a quantity of special First Day Covers (as illustrated) for sale at 40p (including postage and packing).

Intrinsically, these covers will increase in value. Artistically they are pleasing and contain a coloured postcard of a painting by Peter Monamy (whose picture was used for the stamp) and some historical detail about the Royal Cork Yacht Club—the oldest yacht club in the world. The profit from the sale of these cards will accrue to the R.N.L.I. An order form is on page 304..
