I am afraid you will be disappointed if this is the extent of your father's collection. These are not postage stamps, but rather privately printed labels issued as part of a fund raising campaign: they are called Cinderellas by stamp collectors and are very collectible. However, they are not worth a whole lot. Ignore the first (ebay) link in the post above, and instead read the link to the Stamporama discussion.

I find it mildly amusing that the eBay listing is still there after all this time, almost 2 years !
I suggest the original poster here on this thread tries an auction for his Cinderellas......there is a good one close by.
