Are these French stamps that were cancelled in China?? Does that make them worth more?

Sorry for the blur.

Thanks.

Like many other nations, France opened post offices in China in the late 19th and early 20th Centuries. These stamps look in great condition, but their value isn't all that high. I would guess about 4 dollars tops for the two of them (and likely less.)

By the way, the right stamp is for postage due.

So, this is an overprint for Turkey, right? And worth more, from what I can tell.

(Got to find a better way to capture these images)

It might be best to say Turkish or Ottoman Empire for this next stamp. I`d be surprized if it were worth more than the others.
