Hi. Can anyone tell me about these drawings? I do not care about the value but would like to know more about their meaning and origin and the artist. Thank you.

These are colored paper reproductions of ink-paintings representing four of the Seven Japanese Lucky Gods.
The seal 美　is an abbreviation for 美術 "Art"
This kind of seal is used in case of reproductions.
