This set of four surcharged stamps from Lithuania depicts various athletic events. The designs feature stylized figures engaged in archery, javelin throwing, diving, and running, with the inscription 'Olimpijada 1938'.

Issued in 1938, these stamps commemorate the Olympic Games, likely a national sports festival or the Olympic movement within Lithuania, as no official international Olympic Games were held that year. The surcharges were typically used to raise funds for sports development or related causes.
