Can you help with identification?

I am the first to admit I am still learning. I know post war standard issues pretty well but I am still figuring out pre war. My co-worker lost his mom last week. When going through the house with his brother, they came across their dad's collection.

He sent me a few pictures and asked if they had any value. From what I gather, they look like exhibits - but I thought that exhibits were 47-66 so that doesn't make sense with Babe Ruth.

Can you let me know if he has anything? He has some other stuff but wanted to start with these.
Thanks

Thank you very much.

From what I gathered, it looks like Ruth and the HOFers have some value but not a ton of value in the commons

Some of the 1929 Kashin commons are extremely short printed and carry a premium as well.

Thanks for all of the help, emails, and PMs on these.

I will be with him the week of 11/13. I will get a full list and a live look and feel of condition. Depending on where his head is, I will get his price and see if something can be worked out.

The caveat, of course, is the fact that it was his dad's collection and he might end up having second thoughts about getting rid of them. I don't yet have a Ruth and have thought about making an offer to him on that one, but I would really like a graded 33 Goudey to be my first one.
