Aunus Sc N13-20/SG 1-8 issued June 27, 1919. Aunus is the Finnish name for the Russian town of Olonets. Finnish troops occupied the town in April 1919. Russians took back the town after a few weeks, the stamps continued to be used until October 1919.

(I would have put under Russia since it was where the stamps were used but following catalog classification)
