History: 
My stepdad's grandfather picked up these items during his time serving in WWII. They've been passed down to me, and I don't have much use for them. Since they seem to have a lot of history behind them, I imagine that they should be worth something, but I can't tell. The carvings are from the Philippines, and the boomerangs from Australia.
