I think that $100-200 for each of these would be a reasonable price range.

Strongly agree with this. I've had a bunch that are on par with yours, and ended up literally giving them away. Vintage Newspapers are simply an incredibly difficult sell. Just not much demand, despite the great content and visual appeal. I think you'd do very well to get $75 for the Cobb and about the same for the Ruth. Just my .02, after repeated disappointing results.
