Army-Navy Commemoratives? Anyone familiar with these?

So happy to have found this site (thanks to nole at ohsobeautifulpaper.com). I’m looking for anyone who can tell me what the significance is of these? I have 13 of these, all different. All 2” by 6”.

I don’t see that the image is showing up, so here’s a link:

The US Post Office came out with a series of stamps in 1936 and 1937 for commemorating the Army and Navy. The printed cards you have pictured were likely intended to be collector’s mounts for the individual stamps.
