Unfortunately lots of damaged pieces. There appear to be some savable ones though.

I would very gently soak them off the papers they are on and get them in a drying book for a week.

They should come out clean and flat and present much better. Be very careful with the strip of revenue stamps. Goal is to keep them together.

Also, if you crop your images (remove the white surrounding area) the stamps will show better.
