The stamps are all canceled (mostly local cancels/round cancels).
The preservation is good for its age, and the dentition is intact in most values.
The lot is presented as shown on the album sheet (pre-printed sheet). Please examine the photos carefully to get a personal impression of the quality of the stamps and their centering.
