The top row of green is:
30 Haleru Scott # J84
95 Haleru Scott # J87
The bottom row of violet is:
1 Koruna Scott # J88
I can't make out the denomination of the second stamp. But as the sheet is dated 1954 it is most likely:
1 Koruna 50 Haleru Scott # J90
the other two are:
2 Koruna Scott J92
3 Koruna Scott J93
Used they are all valued at 20c each
As for the second page:
They are for the Centenary of the death of Frantisek L. Celakovski, poet and writer.
1 Koruna 50 Haleru Scott # 544 used value 20c
2 Koruna Scott # 547 used value 50c
It looks as if someone has collected the mint stamps and gone to the post office and had them hand cancelled. Or did the Czech post office issue these sheets as collectors items?
i have seen many Czech stamps on piece, mounted by hinge. I assumed that they were cut squares from FDCs, but maybe these sheets provide a different explanation.

re: what are they.
" ... Used they are all valued at 20c each ..."
Valued indeed.
I suppose Kim means per the Scott catalog, and Scott (Ames Publishing) does not sell stamps.
So, Czech postage due stamps are sort of a drug on the market
sold off, often on pages, as the reminents of the dreams
of departed collectors in those often soiled
manila folders piled up at the end of dealer's tables
for a pittance

Czechoslovakia was one of several east bloc countries to produce tons of stamps for the packet trade, and often intentionally produced short sets so that one of the stamps in a set was far rarer than the others. Oddly, this was often NOT the high value of the set. But I digress.
Most postally used Czech stamps from the communist period are far rarer than CTO and mint varieties, and these FD sheets demonstrate why on-cover is essential.
