Hi all, I've tried to identify these using Michel Specialised, SG Austrian/Hungary Simplified and various online apps. No luck though. Any suggestions very welcome!  |

philippa - Fairly certain those are from stationery, although I can't tell if they were postcards or envelopes - if thicker paper, postcards. I don't have any catalogs for Austrian stationery, however. We love posts like these here in the forum! It's fun to help identify various pieces and a few have led to some rather extensive hunts!

Sometimes in the past the postal stationery was not kept in full, but the postal value was mistakenly clipped and kept in the album like a postage stamp. Some examples where the clippings come from.. 
However, they are clippings from 1869 - 1918 postcards, personally I like them very much, I would jealously keep them in my collection with the stamps of the same period, the postmarks are also very beautiful and clear, absolutely to be kept, congratulations. |

Thanks so much everyone for the quick responses, I was pulling my hair out trying to work out what they were! I look forward to organising them into a nice display.
