Could you provide an image of the full cover (envelope) from the first photo and the last two items (no counting the duplicate last photo). If you use edit, then you can add the new images to the original post and delete the duplicate.

All the stamps are worth more being on their complete envelopes, known as covers, rather than being soaked off.

The "210" in pencil the correct Scott number as well as the 741 for the 2 cent stamp. The pencil ".06" was referring to six cents of value for the stamps.

Much better. Perhaps some SCF members will chime in.

For increased interest, I asked if the title could be improved by a moderator. That is why it changed.

Most of these covers are not of much monetary value, as they use the "workhorse" stamps of the eras.

One of these is from Groton Pond, Vermont, which is a discontinued Post Office (DPO), which operated from 1874 to 1916. Another DPO is Liberty, Virginia, which operated between 1794 and 1890. Each of these may be worth $5 - $25 if someone has an interest in these towns.

There are some others with interesting uses and markings which may be in the $5 - $10 range. Most are common (less than $1).

Don't have an opinion on the documents.

Some of the covers with Corporate Return addresses and logos, e.g. New England Telephone & Telegraph, may be with a few dollars to people who collect that type of material.

The mixed franking registered England to Boston has value to mixed franking collectors and is unusual. Hard to read, but it looks like an envelope first mailed from Boston, then reused from England back to Boston. My guess is a value of $20 or so.
