Tina....

When you show pictures it's easier for us if you show the whole stamp.

The top 2 are Austrian....#5e if it's the 9kr....and #PR3, 2kr...or...#PR4, 4kr......could be reprints, depends on paper type.

Blue block is Bulgarian....Parcel Post #Q25...1944

Gutter pair is Czechoslovakian....#240....1937

The first two items are Austrian and at least the first one is particularly interesting. To further identify we would have to know the color and denomination because there are quite a few varieties of it, some of which, if genuine, may have considerable value. The second is a newspaper tax stamp and again the identity would depend on color/denomination. Item 3 is a parcel post stamp from Bulgaria, Scott #Q25, $.20 and the latter one is what's called a gutter pair from Czechoslovakia and may have some premium to a specialized collector. The stamp is a quite common, Scott #240 from 1937, $0.20. It comes about simply by how the 'panes' are separated from a 'sheet'. There are generally 4 panes in a sheet separated by a gutter of selvage.

just burst my bubble why dont yathats ok if its not that million dollar stamp,its very interesting anyways,Im not in this for the money,in the begining when I first join on here I just wanted somebody to help me find someone who would love these stamps and give them a good home like my grandpa would have wanted ,so I thought,then when my first transaction went all wrong on my half of the deal,Yes i'll admit I was very discouraged cause of it,but then a few of you guys had turned my plans all around (for the good of stamping)now i've been like this sponge just wanting to absorb as much about stamps as my brain will allow.I have 4 big albums full,& a few smaller ones full that I am keeping for my collection then the rest im doing what ever happens happens with it lots of trading stuff but nobody has said that they have any disney stamps,
