Švenčionys 1934
Those 2 cards are business order confirmations sent in 1934 from Święciany (now Švenčionys, Lithuania) to Lessines, Belgium. N. Tarasseisky & Sohene was an exporter of vegetable products based in Švenčionys. As I have already mentioned in a previous post about Święciany, the postmark includs "Wileńskie" which means that it is part of the Wilno (now Vilnius) region. They are 2 types of postmarks, the upper one is the older type which is believed to be used untill 1935 and the lower type has been used from 1934 until the end of the Polish occupation in 1939.
