Cover Types
![]() Initially the back of the covers was blank and this first printing is known as TYPE A. Soon the covers appeared with an advertising slogan, super-imposed over a tobacco plant and an oval.:- "Why do we give you these inserts? This is TYPE B with the word more bisected by the oval and realise is with an S. This wording and design must have been considered too small and a new bolder design was introduced. TYPE C has the same wording but the word more is outside the oval (20s) or circle (10s). Realize is with a "Z" in Medium (All) & Postcard size (Most). TYPE D is the same as TYPE C but additionally, inside the cover under the number in the series, is printed:-"Kensitas flowers are washable and the colours are fast." This note should not be taken literally. There is only one known cover variety and it is:- 1st. series Medium size - 36. Nicotiana Cover Type A. The language of flowers should be:-'Contentment', it is found with:- 'I soothe you', this variety is not scarce. Without their covers the flowers are anonymous.
