Are covers retrieved from shipwrecks included in this category? Should mention be made in this article? --Daniel C. Boyer 18:34, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

To the extent that anybody cares, I tend to see ship- and train-wreck material called "wreck covers". At the link on the page, the Wreck & Crash Mail Society characterizes themselves as having four study groups: "Air Crash Study Group, The Railroad Wreck Study Group, the Ship Wreck Study Group, and the Suspended Mail/Conflicts Study Group". Not sure if better to make this a portmanteau article (naming is awkward), or try to have two articles. Stan 21:42, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] EDITING TALK:CRASH COVER

Yes, covers from shipwrecks are also considered "crash covers" or "wreck covers". I have changed the text of "crash cover" to reflect this.
