My 2017 Michel Spezial values
your # 1 First Day Cover €120.00
your # 3 set used € 26.00 no price on cover
Nice to see a cover from Breitkopf & Härtel, the great classical music publishers.
1. 2011 Junior - 222-225- €120
2. ?
3. 2011 Junior - 276-279 - if FDC €350. Looks like it is, or maybe 1959?
# 3 is not a FDC stamps released on December 15. 1950
the cover shows cancellation of December 23. 1950 or 1959
#2 is a booklet, Mi. #47, Winterhilfswerk 1940, c.v. MNH €150
I would say the third one was cancelled 23 December 1950.
The CDS on the blue stamps looks like 12.23.59
The "Fight for peace" set should be postmarked in 1950 rather than in 1959 (it also fits the printing reference on the envelope). These stamps were issued in December 1950 and remained valid until March 1952. In 1959 they would not have been accepted - there was a reform of the postal fees in 1954 when all prices were made multiples of 5 Pfennig, so that these stamps would have stuck out like a sore thumb. Maybe a better scan would clarify things.
But writing the catalog values on the envelopes was rather foolish. That lowers the value immediately.
