Hey Specialists / Experts in this country, I only collect Newfoundland and I am ignorant of this country. I happened to pick them up in Vienna last year as they captured my eye.

Looking for information like stamp numbers, registration, cancels, dates and to and from destinations. And of course, a ballpark value because I want to give or trade them.

Thanks

1. Parcel post London to Germany Oct 3, 1890

2. Cover Yorkshire to Germany 1920 (Registered)

3. Postcard London to Saxony 1888

Enjoy

Used newspaper wrappers are relatively scarce. They are the poor survivors of philately in my opinion. Unfortunately there is little demand, so hard to put a dollar value on the item.

The postcard is in poor condition and will have very minimum value.

The Bradford registered cover is attractive to the eye. It has to be worth $20 or so?

F D Moore ran a mill in Bradford making worsted, a woolen cloth used in WW1 for uniforms. Lyons & Co. could be the famous tea merchants and tea-shop proprietors. They were founded in 1884, so if the cover is from them it's pretty early.
