Do not donate them to the Hall of Fame or anything. Auction house is probably the way to go, may not bring a ton of money but someone would love to own them and may actually look at them periodically unlike the HOF that will set them on a shelf and they will literally never see the light of day ever again.
I love museums as an institution and if you have something that will actually be put on display that is the route to go, but an item of this nature will never be on display and will sit on a shelf.
I can't help but think of all the work and time Jefferson Burdick dedicated to his collection, he donated them to a museum and they have never done anything with them other than a small rotating display they they seem to look down on having to put out there!
