Are you sure? I was confused, because in all the other languages, the 4th edition is from 1995. Also, they are black bordered. 4th edition should be white-bordered.

The very first printing of every language is printed in black border. Since Chinese and Japanese were first printed in 4th edition, those cards are black bordered. Its why Russian 9th edition cards are black bordered.
As for the date, they were released in China and Japan in 1996 instead of 1995. Everything points to these being 4th edition FBB basics.
I am not sure, if this is the right forum, but I can't find a better fitting one.
I bought a collection and found a few japanese and chinese basics and I can't identify the edition. Could somebody help me?

In your first picture, they're all Chinese, except the forest in the middle, which is Japanese.
