Newbie772, your scans are a whole lot better than the photographs. What exactly is it you are looking for? The Scott catalog has a lot of info on these stamps
Newbie, for these older stamps you should get a Scott catalog. It has an enormous amount of basic info that you should have at your fingertips. I realize they are expensive, but if your main objective is older stamps, older catalogs are available on E-bay very reasonable!
Many public libraries have Scott catalogs in their "Reference" sections and some allow them to be borrowed. Or, you may be able to take a few stamps to the library to do your research.
Some of the postal history "fun" is derived not only by the stamps, but by the addresses noted on the cover. In the case of the scanned cover, the sender, L.W. Hudson of Plainfield, NJ was a stamp dealer in the 1930s. He advertised heavily in Boys' Life and Popular Mechanics from that period. Here's an example of his classified ad:
