I wonder if someone could give me some idea as to what these are. I have tried
the internet, but it is a little vague.

Hi Vernon,

The stamp on the left, "Remember the Starving" is an Austrian label. I've seen a post card with one used from Vienna in 1921.

The stamp on the right "Cross-Penny-Collection 1914", is a German charity label in aid of the Red Cross.

Silence in the face of adversity is the father of complicity and collusion, the first cousins of conspiracy..

How many pfennigs does it take to make a Franc ?

It depends on whether you want mustard and onions with it.
