SC 50 J Ausf. A, as the inscription SC 50 JA on the box says. ;)

From the bomb at the very right, I'd say SC 500.

Thansk for your confirmation, Grzesio

I found these images on Ebay., After a careful analysis of the bombs I am not able to decide if they are SC250 or SC500 with security.... :?

Image 1: I would say SC500J or SD500 to the left and SC250 to the right
Image 2: I think SC500
Image 3: I think SC500 bombs

I think so too, the latter ones seem to be of the longer SC 1000 L2 variant.

Thank you very much for your help, Grzesio . I didn't know that there were a longer version of SC1000 bomb.

Any idea about this? I am not sure if an aerial drop item or not..... :?

Yes, there were SC 1000 (or SC 1000 L) with one piece body, 258 cm long as well as SC 1000 L 2 with two piece body (separate ogive), 280 cm long.
Any idea about this? I am not sure if an aerial drop item or not.....
Looks a little bit similarly to a British high capacity bomb - HC 2000-lb Bomb or so. Maybe it's a question of a variant.
The background itself looks like a crash site...

I have, sadly, very few reference on Italian bombs.

I have noe documents at hand to consult, but it reminds me of british WW2-era ground mines (a bit strange location for such object though).
