Hi akhav, and a very welcome to this forum. The two "stamps" you show are cinderellas, not postage stamps. They seem to sell for about 10 euros on the German ebay, so they are not too bad

Welcome to the forum!

As Peter said, they are not stamps. They are "Spendenmarken" for the German Youth Hostel organization, "Deutsche Jugendherberge

A Spendenmarke is a stamp you would receive for donating to an organization. They weren't redeemable but they are collectable.

Yours look like they are from the Hitler era but I have no pictures or references to verify that.

Experienced stamps need a home too. I'd rather have an example that is imperfect than no example.
I collect for enjoyment, not investment.

Here are some earlier German youth hostel charity labels.
