The Original Lithuanian basketball T-Shirt design was actually created independently by New York artist Greg Speirs. The Original Lithuanian tie dyed uniforms first appeared in the 1992 Barcelona summer Olympics and featured Speirs' original Lithuanian slam-dunking skeleton "Skullman ®" . Through the artist's generosity, merchandising of his Lithuania basketball uniforms design, raised MAJOR FUNDS of over $400,000.00 for the Lithuanian basketball team and Lithuanian children's charities during the Olympics and became his trademark brand. The artist's design was unveiled to the world when it was worn by the Lithuanian Olympic basketball team, while the team received bronze medals at the Olympic closing ceremonies. The Lithuanian Olympic basketball uniforms became part of sports history, and sought after collectible from the Olympics. These are the Original Tie Dyed Lithuanian basketball T-shirts, reissued as the 2004 Collector's Commemorative Limited Edition, signed & numbered, authorized by the artist, their original source. We offer another chance to own a part of sports art history.  (The original Skullman  Lithuanian basketball jerseys and original artwork were enshrined in the Basketball Hall of Fame: Springfield, Mass. on Dec. 7, 1993).
