Antique Japanese geisha girl china

Description

I have 5 tea cups, 5 saucers, and 4 plates. The picture of the newspaper is what is was packaged in. I'm hoping it's some kind of date. I would like to know how much this is worth? Thanks in advance. It was found in my great uncles house, I believe he sent it to his wife during the war.

Based on the markings and images these are Satsuma style "Lithophane" teacups made after 1921, most predate World War two (1939). They were a mass produced item, with production going right through the 1960's and not considered rare. At auction you might get $75.00 for the five of them.
