They are advertising trade cards, and rather common ones at that. Plus they are trimmed.

Look up Merchant Gargling Oil. Very common set of 4 or so. Wait for better examples.
The most common of all Victorian baseball related trade cards
H804-7 in the American Card Catalog (ACC). there are 3 different sets, these are either the H804-7B or H804-7C, but cant make out who lithographed them (scans too small). The full color ones (H804-7A) are a bit tougher. PS. those are worth only a couple dollars ea. at best.

Thanks for the info! I don't think I will be bidding then.
