List Of Ships On Stamps
Many nations have depicted
ships on stamps
, since
ships
have long been a means of transporting the
mail
over long distances. Ships are also symbols of
economic
or
military
prowess, and in some cases specific ships are associated with events of historical significance to the issuing nation. The protocol for listing ships is similar to that for
people on stamps
. If a specific ship is listed, it is by name, and others are by type and/or era. While this list could conceivably include any sort of watercraft, the emphasis is on large seagoing vessels.
