Banque de L'Algerie-1926, 1933, 1942

Hello all, new member here.

I've found a number of old bills stuffed inside a book left me by my father. He spent time in North Africa and Italy during WWII and most of them are from those areas. I discovered your forum yesterday and was immediately able to identify a German propaganda US 5$ bill (on the US banknote forum). So now I turn to you guys. Any information you can give me on these notes (and others to come) would be greatly appreciated. Do they have any collectable value?

Also, please advise as to how I should store these. I'm quite certain "stuffed in a book" is not ideal!

Thanks.
