Issued by the Cook Islands in 1968, this vibrant six-stamp set celebrates the XIX Olympic Games held in Mexico City. Each stamp captures a dynamic athletic scene — including hurdling, cycling, diving, sailing, gymnastics, and high jump — symbolizing the spirit of international sportsmanship. The right panel features the Olympic rings and Mexico 1968 emblem framed by colorful floral motifs. A fine example of mid-century sports art and Commonwealth philately, this set reflects both motion and elegance in design. Highly prized by collectors for its vivid color palette and historical significance.
