The Franklin Mint (USA) released luxury collectible sets in the 1970s–1980s, centered on major themes, including the Olympic Games.
The Blue Box is usually:
• A presentation case
• Containing 46 FDCs (First Day Covers)
• Each envelope contains:
the official stamps of the Olympic Games
a first-day postmark
o accompanying German description
The 46 FDCs — what do they represent?
• They span multiple Olympic Games, often:
o Summer Games + Winter Games
various host countries
• Each FDC is thematic (sports, logos, stadiums, athletes)

Certified by the Olympic Committee – an important nuance point.
That sounds impressive, but it usually means:
