The first stamp is Greece SG #340 issued in 1932. The second is Bulgaria SG #151, 1921 The third seems to be a Greek revenue stamp The fourth, is from Bulgaria's People's Republic, post 1945.
Third is Russian occupation of Crete, Rhetymno province. Stamp issued 1899, value 2 METALIK. Each value issued in different colours: red, blue,green,orange, yellow. This (if not forged) is from the first issue. Second issue: similar image, but coloured numbers. I guess... these are rare (although CV is not that high). Only 960 pieces issued each colour 1 metalik, 2 metalik and 1 Grosion.
The SG numbers quoted above don't seem to be correct. SG = Stanley Gibbons The 1st stamp is Greece SG 457 (1932) The 2nd stamp is Bulgaria SG 240 (1921) The 4th stamp is Bulgaria and found in Michel as D22 (1950) The 5th stamp is Bulgaria SG 164 (1911)
