Quote: It is interesting in that the 2nd period first issues of Lithuania are almost as crude as the 1st period. Which makes for interesting observations. I like that. The country and its people were on a new journey, organising its first stamp emission for some time must have been full of chicanes and organisation. I bet there are some stories behind those. Now that they are organised, their stamps are top shelf quality in my opinion. I just snapped up a bargain lot of your early stamps Brian, look forward to their arrival in say 4 weeks. Sc#594 1998 80th anniv of Independence.  |

Rod, I assume you mean 1998 (like inscribed in the lower left corner of the stamp) instead of 1988.
Nice links, Perf12. |

Nice links, Perf12. Thanks Brian, (corrected) I need to ease up on my bowls of blueberries, too many anti oxidants. Yes, great links Perf12.... Thank you. |

Rod: The second issue of the stamps of the 2nd Lithuanian Republic, was released on December 22nd (curious!)1990. Printed on 16 stamps (4x4) sheets. The stamp on the right has a "tab" with a text in Rusian, English, French and German, that says "First stamps of the Reestablished Republic of Lithuania". |

Beautiful stamps - and inspiring work Rod, thanks for sharing!  Brian - thanks for sharing those Kaunas issues said to be geunine - I've bookmarked for later reference. I'm working on Lithuania myself right now - first establishing a full stamp inventory database according to Michel. Mind you, I have hardly any stamps to register in that database tough....So my new set-up on the Varios will start off very sparsely populated  The positive thing is that there are plenty of empty slots waiting to be filled  |
