Yugoslavia year 1992 stamps – Summer Olympic games Barcelona full set

The stamp issue from Yugoslavia (Federal Republic of Yugoslavia) for the 1992 Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona consisted of a commemorative set, usually issued in the form of a Miniature Sheet (or Souvenir Sheet) containing multiple stamps.

Here are the key details about the issue:

• Theme: Summer Olympic Games, Barcelona 1992.
• Format: Typically issued as a miniature sheet containing four individual stamps.
• Date of Issue (Approximate): May 20, 1992.
• Sports Depicted: The four stamps in the set generally featured different Olympic sports, such as:
  • Water Polo
  • Handball
  • Tennis
  • Fencing (or another sport)
• Philatelic Identification:
  • Michel Catalog: YU 2538-2541 (for the set of 4 stamps)
  • Scott Catalog: YU 2157-2160 (for the set of 4 stamps)

It is notable that this issue was released shortly before the start of the Games, and it is considered one of the final philatelic issues for the unified Federal Republic of Yugoslavia before major changes occurred in its international standing, including being banned from participating in team sports at the actual Barcelona Olympics due to UN sanctions.
