Would appreciate knowing where, in the former Free City of Danzig, these cancels were applied.
On the left, I think it starts "LADEK..."
On the right, I think it says "BOLKAU"
None of my sources pinpoint where in Danzig these were posted.
Can anyone help? Also, is there somewhere on the Internet a listing of what the postal places were in the then-Free City of Danzig?

(Klein) Bölkau, now is Bielkowko

and maybe Ladekopp (Marienburg), now Lubieszewo.

Edziu, try looking under Poland. Both of these cancels seem to be cities in Poland

Use search to find Ladekopp, the tenth entry in the table at the bottom.
