Maybe you can first research these stamps yourself on http://www.stampworld.com/. This is the most comprehensive online catalog and will certainly list these stamps - common stamps from the Peoples Republic of China - with the exception of the Japanese stamp, already pointed out.

SWH: that is good advice. But, Stamp World is a big, big place. When someone is just starting out, they could review their stamps more closely. For someone in Slovakia, like Robi13, maybe there is access to a Michel catalog at a local library or stamp shop.

For example, two of the Chinese stamps have dates. So, a good place to begin with Stamp World. While I don't have time to dig out my Scott catalog to confirm, the Japanese stamp may have a cancel, and overall design, of the 1945-1960 post-war period.

The Japan stamp at the lower right (the pink one, with the cherry blossoms) is Scott #725. Used, it's of minimum catalog value (i.e., a common and abundant definitive, but still a pretty stamp, in my opinion). However, if you happen to stumble upon the coil version, even used the catalog value is $1.90.
