What you have are copies of Japanese woodblock prints. The first 2 are by Katsushika Hokusai and are Tago Bay near Ejiri on the Tôkaidô (Tôkaidô Ejiri Tago-no-ura ryakuzu) and Umezawa Manor in Sagami Province (Sôshû umezawa hidari [=zai?]), from the series Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji (Fugaku sanjûrokkei) respectively. To see originals at the Boston MFA, copy and paste the links below into your browser:

The 3rd is again a copy of a woodblock print from the 20th century. Not my era. I don't have time to look it up tonight.
Cheers,
