So my grandfather left me a very valuable inheritance of around 50 albums of stamps from around 1850 to 1980 that he and his father collected throughout the years.
I need your help /his/ to help me recognize some of those stamps, their source and maybe their value.
I will go pic from pages of interest as long as there is an interest for it.
First page(many hitlers in different colors):
This particular album was looted from the house of a nazi officer who collected stamps.
My question about this page is
> Do you think the number next to hitler's profile is the price of the stamp? If so, do you think that this page is a demonstration of the inflation in prices that occurred during the reign of the nazi's? Because that'd be interesting.
tell me if you want to see more pages from the album aswell
also, sorry for my english :c

>Deliberately non-white, gay-ass rainbow Hitlers
>Visual record of gradual hyperinflation from jewsury
>Some boring-ass Nazi actually took up stamp collecting
what the fuck am I reading

Yes, but while I've seen ridiculous shit on /his/ through the years, this one has to be the most startling mix of WTF and subtlety.

That page alone is worth a few hundred American shekels.
>>826681
I want to see more.
this is 1 of 2 cases I now own, both are stocked with stamps to the max.
Yes, it is the price in zloty, since those are General Government - occupied Poland - stamps.
I am fairly sure they are a from a single "set", and not a progression or an indication of rising inflation.
They are not very valuable.

frankly id show more but you guys are not much of a help atm so my motivation is gone.
Anyhow, just for you.
So here is another page with stamps dedicated to 1938, the start of the WWII.
I like the fact that each page has a theme, that nazi did a fine job.
This one also seem to be dedicated to the glory of germany, young boys, shiny planes, all proud and glorious.

the indication of the inflation is the difference in prices between each stamp.
I don't know about how valuable this stamps are but it is quite cool.
anyhow here is a new set tell me what yuo think of it.
>>827156
It depends. Where do you live?
>>826681
Not worth that much m8 my father also has an collection like that with these specific ones, although if they have a certain colour they would be worth alot.
You could go to an professional and get them checked(costs several hundred €) or try to find out with an annual book you can buy online or at a stamp store.

nice collection tho

I doubt it has anything to do with inflation, because the same stamp would have to be issued over a long period of time.
It's likely different values, you know, like stamps today
I have a complete postage stamp block from the 1943 Generalgovernment, including its plain bordering, swastika print and everything. Any idea what it might be worth?
