Dad left 546 stamps from WWII period that I am task with distributing fairly between my 2 sisters and my self. So I have spent many hours pouring over the 2010 Scott Catalog. I have found values for 537 but 9 of them I have not been able to find in the Scott Catalog.
I have attached the ones I could not find except 2 that are the same image of Hitler as the one attached, but different values and colors.
The 2 not posted are:
84 +1ZL color may be violet
24 +1ZL color may be red violet?

The Farm Worker and Factory Worker are Russian but the values on the stamps do not mach what I found in the Scott Catalog.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

The confusion with your first stamps arises from the fact that they are Polish. They are listed 'back-of-book' POland and are a set of NB33-35 and catalog (Scott 2003) at .20/.20 each. The German Coach and Glider Workshop are B273 and B275 eaqch cataloging (Scott 2009) as .20/.45 Hint watch the footnotes in the catalog closely. They cab be very helpful. The Russian I haven't been able to get to yet.

I'm back with the info on your Russian stamps. They're in the footnotes again and are 616B (Factory Worker) and 617 and cataloged (2003) .50/.35 each. Hope this helps.

Those pesky footnotes!

There is a lot of significant information hidden in the fine print.

Thanks cgrotha I appreciate you help. I'm guessing the one with the cars and the one with the marching troops are German also and probably there with the German Coach and Glider Workshop B273 and B275 each cataloging (Scott 2009)as .20/.45.

Thank you very much for your help.
