The hard-to-read cancel on the left stamp, I think, says "WLODZISLAW k JED...."
That means Wlodzislaw NEAR Jed.... But I haven't been able to figure out which town that "Jed..." is.
On the right stamp, the cancel starts "LWOW, TARG...." Lwow is now L'viv in the Ukraine. But what was/is the "Targ..."?
My thanks in advance for any help with these puzzlers.

Good catch, Vayolene! Your eyesight was better than mine.
There indeed is no L after the W, so I believe your suggestion of Wodzislaw kolo Jedrzejowa is quite probably correct.
Put yourself in for a pay raise!
