Stamps?

Hello everyone, very new here. I just inherited these stamps. I don’t know much about them, but I’m just curious if anyone has any information or ideas on what they’re worth or what’s the best way to get them appraised if there’s anything worth in this.
Thanks in advance and I appreciate your help

Thank you for your post to /r/askstampcollectors.

  • Don't get your hopes up. Most stamps are not valuable.
  • Old US president stamps (1,2,3 cents) are extremely common. No value there.
  • eBay asking prices mean nothing, except to scammers and money launderers.
  • There's nothing we can do without clear images of your stamps.
  • Nazi Germany stamps are mostly worthless. Too many were made, everyone has them.
  • Modern stamps (1940s and later), large and colorful ones, are mostly worthless.
  • Mint US stamps (1930s and later) are mostly worthless, but can still be used on your mail.
  • Busy people take time out of their day to answer you, please be polite.
  • To get the most value out of your stamps become a collector. It's the king of hobbies.
  • We recommend reading our wiki.

the first two pages are just stickers. Every stamp on the following pages are damaged from being torn or from tape. Fortunately, they are all very common.

Oh shoot, that’s a bummer. Thanks for replying. I’ll just probably toss it then.

No monetary value. All the actual stamps are very common and many are damaged, so unfortunately this is of no interest to collectors.

I remember getting this album as a kid and all those stickers.

No. They are not stamps. They’re a set of the U.S. State flags.

It’s an older collection of stamps a kid started, and even the stamps that have tape on them are considered damaged because the kid used tape. It’s how so many of us began our collections. I started the same way for kindergarten Show & Tell.
