Dear shareholder
"Shareholders continue to enjoy very attractive current yields generated by
portfolios of quality bonds."
Photographic image of headshot of Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
of Nuveen.
It is my pleasure to report to you on the performance of Nuveen's
exchange-traded funds. Over the past year, shareholders in these funds were
rewarded with attractive tax-free income. A hallmark of Nuveen's fixed-income
investments, this dependable tax-free income makes these funds an excellent
choice for those seeking a stable addition to their core investment portfolio.
To safeguard our shareholders' interests, Nuveen continues to work to find ways
to protect this level of income through changing market conditions.
The funds' sound performance came during a year of volatility in the municipal
bond market, including a mid-year decline and a post-election rally. However, by
continuing to seek out undervalued bonds in sectors and regions we believe are
fundamentally strong, we were able to generate very attractive current yields
for shareholders while also preserving capital.
As of April 30, 1997, shareholders in the funds covered in this report were
receiving annual tax-free yields on net asset value that ranged from 6.66% to
6.82%. To match these attractive yields, investors in the 36% federal income tax
bracket would have had to earn at least 10.41% on taxable alternatives.
<PAGE>
During the same period, the funds outperformed the benchmark Lehman Brothers
Municipal Bond Index, which posted a 6.66% return. Over the past year, the funds
generated total returns, including reinvested dividends and capital gains (if
any) and changes in net asset value, of 7.11% to 7.96%, equivalent to taxable
total returns of 10.98% to 11.90% for investors in the 36% tax bracket. The
level of these returns gains added significance when viewed in the context of
bond market results for the past year, which reflect the rather flat performance
of 1996 and the concern over Federal Reserve deliberations in early 1997.
Nuveen has recently made significant and exciting additions to the investment
options we offer--that make it easier to keep more of what you earn. We
introduced three new equity and balanced funds for investors seeking both
long-term growth and current income. Further, Nuveen's municipal bond fund
selection is now one of the largest in the industry, since our merger with
Flagship Resources, Inc., a highly regarded sponsor of fixed-income mutual
funds. As a Nuveen shareholder, this merger offers you even greater access to
the municipal market.
For more complete information regarding Nuveen investment products, including
charges and expenses, call Nuveen at (800) 257-8787, or contact your financial
adviser for a prospectus. Please read the information carefully before you
invest.
On behalf of everyone at Nuveen, I thank you for your continued confidence
in us and our family of investments. You can continue to depend on us for
high-quality investment products that withstand the test of time. We look
forward to serving you in the future.
Sincerely,
Timothy R. Schwertfeger
Chairman of the Board
June 12, 1997

Answering your questions
Tom Spalding, head of Nuveen's portfolio management team, reviews recent events
in the municipal market and offers insights into the strategies Nuveen uses to
manage your funds
How would you summarize the bond market over the past 12 months?
Throughout the past year, mixed economic reports produced conflicting interest
rate and inflation forecasts, which caused investors to view the markets with
alternating enthusiasm and uncertainty. In late 1996, evidence of an economic
slowdown, the strong U.S. dollar, and lack of inflationary pressures combined to
allay investor fears, sparking a rally in bonds that continued through the
post-election period. The early months of 1997 saw a re-emergence of talk about
inflation, and the markets continue to keep a close eye on the Federal Reserve
to see how seriously it regards such talk.
Over much of the past 12 months, euphoria in the equity market focused
investors' attention on stocks and brought record amounts of new money into
equity-based mutual funds, bypassing the bond market. Some investors, concerned
about a potential stock market correction, decided to take their profits, but
adopted a wait-and-see attitude about investing capital gains, electing to go
with short-term vehicles until a clearer picture of market trends emerged. These
events affected demand for bond issues of all types during the past year. Only
recently have we begun to see some evidence that investors are evaluating the
effect of the huge run-up in stock prices and are rebalancing their portfolios
by gradually shifting some assets from stocks into bonds.
The actions of the Federal Reserve also continue to play a role in bond market
performance. Although the Fed altered interest rates only once in 1996, at the
very beginning of the year, anticipation of further moves kept the markets
restless. With one rate increase approved already in March of this year, the
concern about potential changes in monetary policy--and the effect of such
changes on the markets--continues in 1997.
<PAGE>
What strategies did you use to add value during this market?
The fluctuations of 1996 created specific inefficiencies in the market, enabling
Nuveen to uncover and take advantage of price discrepancies to improve fund
portfolios. For example, we were able to enhance the durability of the funds'
dividends by purchasing bonds with longer call protection. These bonds were
priced similarly to those with shorter calls as interest rates began to rise in
1996, creating a value investing opportunity. As rates moved down during the
year, the bonds with longer call protection then appreciated in value more than
those with shorter calls.
What role does research play in helping you achieve the funds' objectives?
As an integral part of our portfolio management strategy, Nuveen Research
provides portfolio managers with objective appraisals of the creditworthiness of
new municipal issues, while maintaining surveillance of the credit performance
for all portfolio holdings. To track individual holdings, each Nuveen Research
analyst is responsible for a specific surveillance portfolio, which is defined
in terms of geography and sector (e.g., healthcare, housing). Specialization by
sector enables our Research teams to focus their credit quality evaluation
efforts and complement the vantage point of each portfolio manager.
What is the current economic outlook?
The economy in the second quarter has grown at a slower pace than during the
first quarter, however, the growth still may be at a level that exceeds the
Federal Reserve's long-term targets. Interest rates on 30-year Treasuries have
moved in a range of between 6.65% to 7.20% over the past several months, and
expectations are that this range of rates may continue through the third
quarter.
Of course, that's a short-term outlook. By following a disciplined value
strategy and depending on fundamental research, the long-term outlook for our
municipal bond funds--and for Nuveen shareholders--is very good. We will
continue to look for opportunities in sectors like healthcare and public power
and in regions like the Midwest and the Sun Belt. And will continue to identify
bonds that are structured in ways that make them attractive through a complete
interest rate cycle.

Commonly used terms
Yield
An exchange-traded fund's annualized monthly dividend on a given date (in the
case of this report, April 30, 1997) divided by its closing price per share on
that date.
Taxable equivalent yield
The return an investor subject to a given 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, the tax rate is assumed to be 36% for
shareholders, based on 1997 incomes of $124,650-$271,050 for investors filing
singly, $151,750-$271,050 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 the 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 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 per share, 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 is deemed advisable. No shares
were repurchased during the six-month period ended April 30, 1997. Any future
repurchases will be reported to shareholders in the next annual or semiannual
report.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. GENERAL INFORMATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
At April 30, 1997, the National Funds (the "Funds")
covered in this report and their corresponding New
York Stock Exchange symbols are Nuveen Investment
Quality Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQM), Nuveen Select
Quality Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQS), Nuveen Quality
Income Municipal Fund, Inc. (NQU) and Nuveen Premier
Municipal Income Fund, Inc. (NPF).
Each Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio
of municipal obligations issued by state and local
government authorities. 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 The prices of municipal bonds in each Fund's
investment portfolio are provided by a pricing service
approved and supervised by the Fund's Board of
Directors. When price quotes are not readily available
(which is usually the case for municipal securities),
the pricing service establishes fair market value
based on yields or prices of municipal bonds of
comparable quality, type of issue, coupon, maturity
and rating, indications value from securities dealers
and general market conditions. 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 April
30, 1997, NQU had purchase commitments of $3,846,118.
There were no such purchase commitments in any of the
other funds.
<PAGE>
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.
Federal Income Taxes Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for
federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to
comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue
Code applicable to regulated investment companies and
to distribute all of its tax-exempt net investment
income, in addition to any significant amounts of net
realized capital gains and/or market discount realized
from investment transactions. The Funds currently
consider significant net realized capital gains and/or
market discount 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 income tax, to retain such tax-exempt status
when distributed to shareholders of the Funds. Net
realized capital gain and market discount
distributions are subject to federal taxation.
Dividends and Tax-exempt net investment income is declared as a
Distributions to dividend monthly and payment is made or reinvestment
Shareholders is credited to shareholder accounts after month-end.
Net realized capital gains and/or market discount
from investment transactions are distributed to
shareholders not less frequently than annually.
Furthermore, capital gains are distributed only to the
extent they exceed available capital loss carryovers.
Distributions to shareholders of tax-exempt net
investment income, net realized capital gains and/or
market discount are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
The amount and timing of 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 occur and will be
classified as either distributions in excess of net
investment income, distributions in excess of net
realized gains and/or distributions in excess of net
ordinary taxable income from investment transactions,
where applicable.
<PAGE>
Preferred Shares The Funds have issued and outstanding $25,000
stated value Preferred shares. Each Fund's Preferred
shares are issued in more than one Series. The
dividend rate may change every seven days, as set by
the Auction Agent. The number of Preferred shares
outstanding, by Series and in total, for each Fund is
as follows:

Derivative Financial The Funds may invest in transactions in certain
Instruments 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 April 30, 1997.
Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements
in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets
and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of increases and
decreases in net assets from operations during the
reporting period.

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
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:
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
Average daily net asset value Management fee
For the first $125 million .6500 of 1%
For the next $125 million .6375 of 1
For the next $250 million .6250 of 1
For the next $500 million .6125 of 1
For the next $1 billion .6000 of 1
For net assets over $2 billion .5875 of 1
</TABLE>
The fee compensates the Adviser for overall investment
advisory and administrative services and general
office facilities. The Funds pay no compensation
directly to those Directors who are affiliated with
the Adviser or to their officers, all of whom receive
remuneration for their services to the Funds from the
Adviser.

<PAGE>
Certain long-term and intermediate-term investments
owned by the Funds are either 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, both of which ensure the
timely payment of principal and interest in the event
of default (60% for NQM, 47% for NQS, 46% for NQU and
33% for NPF). Such insurance or escrow, however, does
not guarantee the market value of the municipal
securities or the value of any of the Funds' shares.
Certain 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 (100%
for NQM, 100% for NQS, N/A for NQU and 42% for NPF).
For additional information regarding each investment
security, refer to the Portfolio of Investments of
each Fund.
