Lithuania Philatelic Society: June Overprints – Vilnius Issues During the Early Days of German Occupation

Join the Lithuania Philatelic Society for a presentation by Vitaly Geyfman “June overprints. Vilnius issues during the early days of German Occupation” Soviet stamps were overprinted with the one-liner VILNIUS by the Lithuanian Provisional Government. However, this issue as well as other June issues went contrary to German war intentions and was politically unacceptable, an order soon came down to destroy the stamps so overprinted.
