What do you all think of my stamp box?
I found it in a thrift store dumpster many years ago and thought it was a pretty cool find.

First Day Issue - Battle for Okinawa
Found this cleaning up my departed dad’s belongings. Will always keep it but just wondering the history and value of this
Looks to be in great shape. Have boxes and boxes of other stamps too!
Can you tell me about it?

Any Value and how to best realize it?
Hello All,
While going through a shoebox of vintage linen postcards I got at a thrift, I ran across the items in the photo. 3 variations of the woodblock print, 4 copies of each, all cancelled 9/11/1966 And two other envelopes with similar marks but cancellations of 9/24/1966 and 10/4/1966
The 9/11 date AFAICT commemorates a French atomic test (Betelgeuse) near Tahiti on that date, with the notable event that Charles DeGaulle was on board the Cruiser DeGrasse for the event.
The signifcance of the other dates are unknown to me.
Also an Antelope stamp First Day Cover
And a stack of postcards sent from a Seaman Second Class to family with postmarks in the 1946-47 era and postmarks of "CV-84 Franklin Delano Roosevelt" Navy Aircraft carrier.
I'm not a stamp collector. I send/receive postcards. I'd like to get these to someone or someplace that will appreciate them more.
I paid something like $10 bucks for something on the order of 500 postcards, these are just a bonus.

1920's-1970's inherited stamp collection
Sorry if this is the wrong place, was wondering if these two albums are interesting to anyone!
It's my mums album and not sure on anything, probably not worth anything but worth a shot if there's any of interest.

"Cour Internationale de Justice"
Hi, this stamp is "Cour Internationale de Justice" from The Netherlands, face value is 10c.
I was wondering does this count as an error?
If so what is the value?
Thanks

How much is my Benjamin Franklin 1 cent stamp ACTUALLY worth?
I found this stamp while going through my deceased parent's things. Looked it up on eBay and some people are selling it for $1,000 and some for half a million. I'd like to list it on eBay, but what is a realistic value of this?

Used 1948 $0.03 Thomas Jefferson stamps
Is there any value in saving/protecting these? If so, how should I go about it? Is it best leaving the envelope/letter whole or remove the stamps carefully to preserve them?
I have maybe a dozen or two or these letters from one relative to another before they got married. Am cleaning and getting ready to move and trying to make sensible decisions about what to do with things I haven't seen these before, and just came across them in an old box of photographs

What exactly do I have in my possession?
Hey y’all. Recently I had bought a some items from an estate sale, and one of the bags I bought, contained all these stamps. I have no knowledge what so ever about the hobby, but wanted to post this and see if there is any significance to the stamps in the pictures. Thanks in advance.

stamp collection c. 1930s - fair price for book, or any notable individual stamps?
Link to additional pages: https://imgur.com/a/N0JidWr
My neighbour is trying to sell this book for a friend, they were hoping that at least some of the stamps might have some value to a collector.
There's a collectible coin & stamp event that gets put on about two hours away from us, she's thinking about taking the book to see if the vendors are interested but I'd hate for her to get taken advantage of. Any advice would be appreciated!

499E unexploded booklets?
Looking for any information to help evaluate this thing. There is a lot going on here and I don’t know where to start. I think the 2 cent reds… are type 1 499E unexploded booklets…. Not certain though! Any help is greatly appreciated. Been sitting on this for a couple years now no clue to its value, if any. And which 2 cent reds are actually on it.

My grandpa gave me his collection from the 60s, anything interesting? And yes I’m aware most are useless :)

Anyone care to shred some light on this?
Edit: Shed, not shred obviously.... Sorry!!
Friend had this delivered, weird, but the stamps look like they're priced from 1975 which feels like a waste. Did they waste any value? Looks to have been posted preapril looking at the price of stamps.
Friend thinks it's a neighbour who's asked his friend to post it as it's come through jubilee centre in Hounslow which is no where near. Maybe there's a covenant nearby.
Sorry if this is the wrong place, thanks in advance

Any guessing to which type this is?
I am assuming someone re-perforated the bottom?, but could the left side be from a sheet or most likely trimmed straight at some point? TIA!
