Pharmacy on postcards

One of my favourite postcard themes is pharmacy. I'm sorry that not so much postcard are issued with pharmaceutical objects, famouse pharmacists, or drug stores. On 17th January I received a splendid card from Italy. There is a picture with pharmacists' patron  San Giovanni Leonardi (English: Saint John Leonardi; Hungarian: Leonardi Szent János) on it. I never have heard about him before. He lived between 1541 and 1609 in Italy. He became a pharmacist's assistant at Lucca, studied for the priesthood, and was ordained in 1572. He was was founder of the Clerks Regular of the Mother of God (Hungarian: Isten Anyjának Reguláris Klerikusai) in 1621. He was venerated for his miracles and religious fervor. He was was beatified in 1861 and canonized in 1938 by Pope Pius XI. His feast day is October 9th.

The card was sent with three stamps. One of them is a specific stamp with the same picture as the card. The two others are very similar.

My first pharmacy card is from Finland. It's great! There is the herb room of Pharmacy Museum, Turku, Finland. I would like a lot of similar cards!

There were a nice stamp with typical Finish country building and a cross-shaped stamp on the card.

Turku and Szeged are sister towns since 1971. There is a tram running on the streets of Szeged with the name “Turku”.
