WWII Disney Military Insignia drawings

Category
Militaria
Condition
Fair
Description

These hand drawn posters have been rolled up in a tube for over 70 years. The tube was given to me by my father a long time ago, well before his passing. I had no idea what they actually were until I recently did some research and found them to be Disney WWII Military Insignia drawings.

They are hand drawn and signed, maybe one isn't, so they are NOT prints. They are original. I have NO idea what they are worth if anything. I put them in poster frames to get them out of the tube finally in hopes that they don't get totally ruined.

I do have two others, but ran out of frames. They are also more damaged than these six. One has a bigger chunk of paper missing and the other has a large stain on it. The one drawing missing paper is fine (the picture itself, and the other one, the picture is very see-able, it just has this stain thing across part of it.

Not necessarily looking to sell them right now, just curious if anyone has any idea of a value for them.

No, they are not perfect, but they are something i had never seen. But then again, being rolled up in a tube for over 70 years, they aren't bad.

Two MZ Altrohlau CM-R Czechoslovakia plates

Category
Ceramics and Porcelains
Condition
Good
Description

There are two plates, both with painted pictures of little girls on them. One plate has a brunette girl, the other plate has a blonde girl. I've tried doing a search for these particular plates, but can't find any information on them. It's probably because I'm not looking in the right place.
Both plates have a lot of gold trim on the edges. They also have the MZ Altrohlau CM-R Czechoslovakia marks on the backs.

These two plates belonged to my grandmother, who was born in 1913. My mother died last year and she was the last to get all the family heirlooms, so I have been going through all of them because now they've all come to me. I have no idea where most of these things came from or how old they are. I know that many of these items were handed down through the generations. These plates were kept wrapped up in blankets in a locking cedar chest for at least 25 years. That's all I know about them.

A few different cameras were used to capture the pictures on the plates and the insignias on the back. It was really difficult to get a clear picture of the mark. I had to also take the pictures in different places because the light wasn't very good, even with a flash.
