Nice covers & postcards there, especially one at the top right- it's from World War II Germany and it's got a good cancellation. The one at the bottom right is from Czechoslovakia, and I'm pretty sure the bottom left one is from Austria (I could be positive with a slightly bigger picture).

Bottom left is Austria.
Top left appears to be German

I thought that German one on the right, had Adolf Hitler's name on it when I first looked at it, but maybe not.

Nice finds, Tina.

Tina, that would be President Heuss of West Germany. These stamps were issued 1954 - 1960.

The German card is addressed to someone living in the Adolf Hitler str. #29. Scan is a bit too small to read in what city.

Nice old covers, interesting markings.

The first is a meter stamp with a pictorial slogan cancel; the second is notable for the swastika in the postmark, both are from Germany during World War II. The third is post-war Austria, again with a pictorial slogan cancel, and the fourth is a Czech cover, cancelled in Prague.

They are all pretty fine examples.
