Klaf found by Eugenia Kwartac Hirschkorn on a street in Vilna, Poland, after the city was liberated in July 1944. A klaf is a kosher piece of parchment that is used for Torah scrolls or inserted into a mezuzah. Based on the small size of this piece, and the writing on the klaf, it is likely from a mezuzah.
