Photographic image of Richard J. Franke, Chairman of the Board Since the beginning of 1995, we have enjoyed a rebound in the bond markets--a welcome change from 1994, which was one of the most volatile periods in bond market history. In fact, 1995 has unfolded as one of the best years for bonds in a decade. The juxtaposition of these two contrasting periods serves as a reminder that weathering the ups and downs of the markets is a normal part of the investment process. We can gain a better perspective on this process if we remember one of the basic principles of investing: A financial plan that focuses on your long-term goals can minimize the impact of any short-term market volatility. Municipal bond funds continue to be an attractive way to invest for the long term. Your Fund offered steady tax-free income and diversification across market sectors. Throughout the past year, we have kept our sights focused on successfully meeting these objectives: seeking to provide you with a solid source of current income and enhanced share price relative to the market as a whole. As of November 30, 1995, current annual yields on share prices for the funds covered in this report ranged from 5.56% to 6.14%. To match these yields, an investor in the 36% federal income tax bracket would have had to earn at least 8.69% on taxable alternatives. Without question, taxable yields at these levels on investments of comparable quality are difficult to achieve in today's markets. The addition of state taxes to these calculations further enhances the after-tax yield advantage provided by municipal bonds. Reflecting the rebound in the bond market, each of these funds reported substantial gains in net asset value over November 30, 1994, as well as increases in share price. The 12-month total returns on net asset value, reflecting gains plus reinvested dividend income, ranged from 33.77% to 36.74%, which translates to 37.62% to 41.07% on a tax-equivalent basis. These performance results remind us of the important role that municipal bonds--and the tax-free income they provide--can play as part of an investment strategy focused on diversification and long-term performance. The value and dependability of your municipal bond investments are enhanced by the fact that you have chosen tax-free exchange-traded funds managed by Nuveen. We offer a combination of professional management, award-winning research, and shareholder service that distinguishes Nuveen as a fund manager. Our portfolio management strategy, which we call value investing, relies on a disciplined approach to security selection and portfolio construction designed to deliver above-market performance by emphasizing securities that are underpriced or undervalued by the market. This approach is supported by the strength of Nuveen Research, which provides the insights and experience to assist portfolio managers in identifying and selecting bonds with strong credit quality. Our research professionals continually monitor our holdings in order to alert portfolio managers concerning changes that may affect quality. Nuveen also prides itself on its exceptional service to shareholders. Through annual and semiannual reports, regular statements, as well as our toll-free information lines, our communication programs help us stay in touch with your needs and concerns. We also provide support to financial advisers across the nation by supplying them with the information they need to answer your questions and to recommend products to meet your needs. As you review the following pages detailing the solid performance of your funds, we trust you will come away with the feeling that these results, coupled with Nuveen's continued pledge of premium service, add up to a rewarding investment experience. We look forward to serving your tax-free investment needs in the future. Sincerely, Richard J. Franke Chairman of the Board January 16, 1996 Answering your questions Tom Spalding, head of Nuveen's portfolio management team, offers insights into the bond market recovery and the outlook for 1996. How has the recovery of the municipal bond market affected Nuveen funds? The market recovery has helped most Nuveen funds regain some of the share price they lost during 1994's market. The setback in the bond market in 1994--which goes on record as one of the most volatile periods in decades--was the first downturn experienced by many Nuveen exchange-traded fund investors, and some reacted by selling their shares. This, in turn, drove share prices down even further. Since the beginning of the recovery in early 1995, however, municipal bond prices have increased, and most Nuveen funds have seen their prices rise 12% to 15%. Because of their capital structure, leveraged funds such as the ones covered in this report experienced greater price declines in 1994 than unleveraged funds, and they generally responded more quickly to the stabilizing interest rate environment with recovering prices in 1995. Why do these funds continue to trade at a discount despite the recovery? To understand why this is happening, it may be helpful to remember that each share has two prices: the net asset value (NAV), which represents the underlying value of the fund, and the share price, which reflects the market's assessment of the fund. PAGE Photographic image of Tom Spalding Tom Spalding, head of Nuveen's portfolio management team, answers investors' questions on developments in the municipal market. As the market turned around in 1995, net asset values appreciated more quickly than share prices. This is typical of a market that sometimes takes time to recognize underlying value balanced against the various factors that affect share price, such as interest rates, inflation forecasts, the relative strength of the stock market, and the legislative and tax outlooks. The fact that gains in NAVs are currently outpacing the rate of change in share prices means that the market is lagging in recognizing the value currently offered by municipal bonds. Nuveen investors should be aware that the net asset values for the funds covered in this report remain quite strong. For long-term investors, in fact, the current period may present a buying opportunity, as shares can be purchased at prices lower than their underlying value--and at a time when the bond market is strong. What does Nuveen see as the impact of the flat tax proposals? We have been closely monitoring the various flat tax proposals currently being debated in Congress and their implications for tax-free funds. Four major tax reform proposals are currently under discussion, all with the common goal of simplifying the federal tax code and increasing incentives for saving and investment. It is important to note that none of the proposals has gained a strong consensus and that implementation of any measure that manages to pass both houses is at least two years away. We believe that some action on the tax reform front is likely, as federal tax laws are constantly being reevaluated and revised, although changes of the magnitude outlined in these proposals are rare. As we look at the bond market today, we can see some evidence that the market is already compensating investors for the uncertainty of the tax reform situation. Yields on municipal bonds are currently at levels equal to 90% or more of long-term Treasury bond yields, an historically high position; the typical yield ratio is 80-85%. Current municipal yields are comparable to taxable yields in the 10% range, providing good value that is difficult to match. Once the tax reform issue is resolved, we're confident that municipal bonds--because of their high credit quality and attractive yields--will continue to hold a strategic place in the prudent investor's portfolio. The importance of municipal bonds is enhanced by the integral role they play in maintaining our way of life in this country. Our cities, counties, and states will always have a need for financing to build and upgrade projects such as roads, hospitals, and water treatment systems, and municipal bonds will continue to be an essential way to match America's long-term needs for capital improvements with investors' long-term needs for secure income. What is Nuveen's outlook as we head into 1996? Inflation remains low, and the economy seems to be expanding at a reasonable pace. While both of these factors can change and have an impact on the bond market, the current environment is favorable for bonds. Although the supply of municipal bonds is down from past years, demand from institutional investors such as insurance companies was strong in 1995, contributing to the rebound in municipal prices. If we experience continued slow and steady economic growth, combined with low inflation and stable interest rates, that should attract greater numbers of individual investors as well. What does Nuveen mean by "value investing"? Where are Nuveen analysts finding value today? At Nuveen, we define value investing as a disciplined approach to security selection and portfolio construction that concentrates on identifying individual bonds with current yields, prices, credit quality, and future prospects that are exceptionally attractive in relation to other bonds in the market. As we search for value in the market today, our analysts continue to assess investment potential across the entire spectrum of geographical and sector opportunities. During 1995, we saw many credit upgrades on portfolio holdings, meaning that our judgments about credit quality have been rewarded. We currently favor revenue bonds that offer a dedicated revenue stream (such as those issued for tollways or recycling plants) over general obligation bonds, which rely on the taxing power of a state or municipality.

Commonly used terms Yield An exchange-traded fund's annualized monthly dividend on a given date (in the case of this report, November 30, 1995) divided by its closing price per share on that date. Taxable equivalent yield The return an investor subject to a given state and federal income tax rate would need to obtain from a fully taxable investment to equal the fund's stated annualized yield on share price. In this report, these tax rates are assumed to be 39% for CT, 43.5% for MA, 40% for MO, and 36.0% for WA, based on 1995 incomes of $117,950-$256,500 for investors filing singly, $143,600-$256,500 for those filing jointly. Net Asset Value (NAV) The market value of all securities and other assets held by an exchange-traded fund, minus any liabilities. The NAV per share is the fund's net assets, less the value of its preferred shares, divided by its total number of common shares outstanding. Total return on NAV The percentage change in a fund's NAV per common share for a given period, assuming reinvestment of all dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. Taxable equivalent total return The total return an investor subject to a given state and federal income tax rate would need to obtain from a fully taxable investment to equal the Fund's stated total return on NAV. Leverage A technique used to enhance the income produced for common shareholders by a long-term municipal bond fund through the issuance of short-term preferred shares. The proceeds from the sale of the preferred shares can be used to purchase additional long-term bonds, thus increasing the portfolio's income stream. Changes in net asset value, both up and down, are also magnified by leverage. Each Fund intends to repurchase shares of its own common or preferred stock in the future at such times and in such amounts as are deemed advisable. No shares were repurchased during the 6-month period ended November 30, 1995. Any future repurchases will be reported to shareholders.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) 1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES At November 30, 1995, the state Funds (the "Funds") covered in this report and their corresponding stock exchange symbols are Nuveen Connecticut Premium Income Municipal Fund (NTC), Nuveen Massachusetts Premium Income Municipal Fund (NMT), Nuveen Missouri Premium Income Municipal Fund (NOM) and Nuveen Washington Premium Income Municipal Fund (NPW). NTC and NMT are traded on the New York Stock Exchange while NOM and NPW are traded on the American Stock Exchange. The Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as closed-end, diversified management investment companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Securities Valuation Portfolio securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the mean between the quoted bid and asked prices or the yield equivalent. Portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value by consistent application of methods determined in good faith by the Trustees. Temporary investments in securities that have variable rate and demand features qualifying them as short-term securities are traded and valued at amortized cost. Securities Transactions Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses from such transactions are determined on the specific identification method. Securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the transaction date. The securities so purchased are subject to market fluctuation during this period. The Funds have instructed the custodian to segregate assets in a separate account with a current value at least equal to the amount of their purchase commitments. At November 30, 1995, NOM had outstanding purchase commitments of $1,250,410. There were no such purchase commitments in any of the other Funds. Interest Income Interest income is determined on the basis of interest accrued, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on long-term debt securities when required for federal income tax purposes. Income Taxes The Funds intend to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies by distributing all of their net investment income, in addition to any significant amounts of net realized gains from investments, to shareholders. The Funds currently consider significant net realized gains as amounts in excess of $.01 per Common share. Furthermore, each Fund intends to satisfy conditions which will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from regular federal and designated state income taxes, to retain such tax exempt status when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders Net investment income is declared as a dividend monthly and payment is made or reinvestment is credited to shareholder accounts after month-end. Net realized gains from securities transactions are distributed to shareholders not less frequently than annually only to the extent they exceed available capital loss carryovers. Distributions to shareholders of net investment income and net realized capital gains are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and timing of such distributions are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, temporary over-distributions as a result of these differences may result and will be classified as either distributions in excess of net investment income or distributions in excess of net realized capital gains, if applicable. Preferred Shares The following Funds have issued and outstanding $25,000 stated value Preferred shares. Each Fund's Preferred shares are issued in one Series. The dividend rate on each Series may change every seven days, as set by the Auction Agent. The number of shares outstanding by Series at November 30, 1995, for each Fund is as follows:
NTC NMT NOM NPW Number of shares: Series Th 1,532 1,360 640 680 ===== ===== === === Derivative Financial Instruments In October 1994, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 119 Disclosure about Derivative Financial Instruments and Fair Value of Financial Instruments which prescribes disclosure requirements for transactions in certain derivative financial instruments including futures, forward, swap, and option contracts, and other financial instruments with similar characteristics. Although the Funds are authorized to invest in such financial instruments, and may do so in the future, they did not make any such investments during the six months ended November 30, 1995.

6. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES Under the Funds' investment management agreements with Nuveen Advisory Corp. (the "Adviser"), a wholly owned subsidiary of The John Nuveen Company, each Fund pays to the Adviser an annual management fee, payable monthly, at the rates set forth below, which are based upon the average daily net asset value of each Fund.

The Funds pay no compensation directly to those Trustees who are affiliated with the Adviser or to their officers, all of whom receive remuneration for their services to the Funds from the Adviser. 7.

8. INVESTMENT COMPOSITION Each Fund invests in municipal securities which include general obligation, escrowed and revenue bonds. At November 30, 1995, the revenue sources by municipal purpose for these investments, expressed as a percent of total investments, were as follows:
NTC NMT NOM NPW Revenue Bonds: Health Care Facilities 18% 15% 15% 13% Electric Utilities 3 3 4 18 Water / Sewer Facilities 5 14 6 17 Educational Facilities 14 17 2 6 Housing Facilities 11 16 14 16 Lease Rental Facilities -- -- 12 3 Transportation 8 5 4 7 Pollution Control Facilities 7 5 -- -- Other 10 4 2 -- General Obligation Bonds 18 11 31 18 Escrowed Bonds 6 10 10 2 ---- ---- ---- ---- 100% 100% 100% 100% ==== ==== ==== ==== Certain long-term and intermediate-term investments owned by the Funds are covered by insurance issued by several private insurers or are backed by an escrow or trust containing U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities, either of which ensure the timely payment of principal and interest in the event of default (53% for NTC, 35% for NMT, 65% for NOM, and 49% for NPW). Such insurance or escrow, however, does not guarantee the market value of the municipal securities or the value of any of the Funds' shares. All of the temporary investments in short-term municipal securities have credit enhancements (letters of credit, guarantees or insurance) issued by third party domestic or foreign banks or other institutions.
