Salakas 1969



Salakas postmark still in old type in 1969 while Zarasai already had the new one

Nice arrival cancel of Zarasai

This is a registered cover sent in 1969 from Салакас / Salakas to Зарасай / Zarasai within Lithuania SSR. For some reason, the registration label has a light blue color which is pretty unusual. Salakas is small town in Utena county with a population of approximately 500. It has a beautiful and majestic neo-gotico-romanesque church totally worth visiting just for this.
