Second Lietuvos Vaikas issue 1932



This is the second Lietuvos Vaikas issue of 1932. It has been issued on December 1st. The 50 and 60 centai stamps depict the battle of Žalgiris that took place in 1410. The Germans call it the battle of Tannenberg, the Poles call it Grunwald. It is interesting that the description in the stamp itself calls it "Grunwald" just like how the Poles call.
