Lithuania: Moments of Joy
A Hallmark card from Lithuania.
This is amazing, but it's my second stamp to commemorate 600th anniversary of Grunwald Battle and both of them came this week. First one was from Belarus. Because the week is not over yet, I hope to receive 3rd one from Poland :) All these countries were in The Kingdom of Poland and the Grand Duchy of Lithuania at the times of the Battle and fought against Crusaders of the Teutonic Order.

They stamped the card with 'Insufficient Postage' and this is ridiculous! The postage is fine... So annoying!
Private swap. Thanks, Erin!

Belarus: Menestrels
This is a very nostalgic card for me. It's actually a note card, it was issued in Soviet Union in 1988. I used to collect postcards and note cards in my childhood and I remember having this one. I think the illustration is great and very unusual for Soviet times.
The sender pointed out that there is a typo on the stamp. The stamp is to comemorate the Battle of Grunwald in 1410, but the stamp states it happened in 1500. However I think that 1500 is the price of the stamp in Belarusian money.
