Lithuania Pre-1940 Stamp Collection

Lithuania · 1918 · Various

This is a collection of 48 different postage stamps issued by Lithuania before 1940. The stamps likely feature a variety of designs from the early years of Lithuanian independence, including national symbols, portraits of historical figures, and definitive issues that were crucial for establishing the new nation's postal system.

Following its declaration of independence in 1918, Lithuania began issuing its own stamps, which were a vital symbol of sovereignty and national identity after a long period of Russian rule.
