I have about 200 sheets of stamps from the 40s through the 60s.
Is there a way of selling the collection all at once and getting good value or should I just try to sell them off one by one.
There are a few that are somewhat more valuable such as some early space stamps a series of flag stamps
I've looked on ebay but people who sell similar stamps don't seem to get any bids.

These stamps mostly do not sell well on eBay or elsewhere. In fact, most of them are best used as postage. But not quite all - a few may be worth a premium over the postage value. Mystic Stamp Company is a good place to start. Or get a copy of Linn's Weekly Stamp News, and look through the "Wanted to Buy" ads. Or take them to a meeting of a nearby stamp club and ask their advice - you can find a club in your area with a few mouse clicks at http://www.stamps.org .

I have an ebay store, and I would NOT recommend trying to sell them there. I have. The response was not very good at all. There is just too high of a volume of them there. The sale prices are generally very low, and not worth my time and effort.
I would try a consignment shop, a flea market or a garage sale. Even your local stamp dealer is going to want to give you the lowest price possible for them.

See my answer on your different question. I forgot to characteristic that those 1947 reproductions are nonetheless worth approximately their face (postal) fee, as they have been revealed in very great parts. and that they have got been issued at a great stamp teach in long island city, so creditors offered them in enormous numbers and socked them away.
