The photos are about 6" x 8". Some team shots and 3 players. In my mind, this shot of the Gashouse Gang is really cool.

I am not anticipating much value, but I would like to know if they were issued by any known company. There are a few other teams - Red Sox, Tigers, and a shot of the 34 All star game.

I also got a group of what I think are Goudey Premiums - mostly Cleveland guys. These are about 3" x 5"

Any help is appreciated.

Hi-
They all appear to be mid 1930s premiums. The larger ones look to be R311s, and the smaller ones are the wide pens. Here is a link to old cardboard's R311 page. They look like the glossy (not leather) style. Nice find!

-Alan is correct & the larger ones are R311 Glossy Finish cards.

-The cards in the bottom scan are a combination of R313 Fine Pens and R314 Wide Pens with the Vosmik portrait being from the R314 non-border set (which is a tougher subset).

Thanks so much. R311 looks to be right.

I got them about 20 years ago, and have been wondering for a while.
