I need help.This is a Swedish postcard. I think the 15o is a Scott number 168 and if I read the catalogue correctly, it was released in 1928. My best guess is that the 10o is a Scott number 128 with a release date of 1925. The center line of the CDS reads 18 1. 32. 12 13. I interpret this as meaning 18 = Military time (6 pm), 1 = January, 32 = 1932, 12 and 13 are facility codes. I know less than nothing about Swedish stamps and their postal system. I have a handful of Swedish postcards and this is my first attempt to learn about them. Any help will be appreciated.

The Google AI says AVG. LBR. is the abbreviation for Avgången Likvidation Betald Rekommenderat. Seems legit

Apologies if you know this already!

Here is another card I am trying to learn about. I interpret the center line to read 18 day, undetermined month, year 1912, time 6-7, E meaning in the afternoon. The special slogan I think says Top line Olimpiska Spelen 1 Stockholm, 2nd line Olympic Games of Stockholm, 3rd line 29 Juni- 1912- 22 juLi. Can anyone confirm or correct my interpretation? Also, can anyone give me help on the identification of the stamp? And any other information about the card would be appreciated.

I believe that "AVG. LBR." indicates that the item was picked up from a postbox.
