Thank all of you. I ask one last time for these 4 stamps. Are these Chinese?

In your last picture the first brown stamp is from the USSR from 1928 (it says CCCP, Cyrillic for SSSR, next to the numer 8). The second-last stamp, blue with red circle, is definitely Chinese from the Republic of China, though I don’t know if from the mainland before the communists took over 1949 or from Taiwan. The Person pictured is Sun Yat-sen.

The other two I’m not sure. The bridge could be from communist China, it was founded 1949. Try making 1 stamp pictures and try the picture sesrch on Briefmarken auf Colnect or their stamp identifier app.

From your initial 2 picture in the first picture I cannot identify any other stamps than the 3 Sun Yat-sen stamps.

Second picture:first row red is Ukraine from the short-lived independence after world war 1. Brown stamp Soviet Union 1928.
Second row brown Kingdom of Bulgaria, red-brown Russian Empire with soviet overprint.
Third row blue-green Norway official stamp (only for use on mail from the government), red Princedom or Kingdom of Serbia before it became part of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.
Last stamp again Ukraine in the late 1910s.

My stepfather is an avid stamp collector. I showed him how to use google lens (or searching by picture) works. It helps him a lot!

Although this search here is of course way more fun!!
