Need help identifying these Babe Ruth cards

Hello all,

I need some help identifying these Babe Ruth cards below. Also, any thoughts on whether or not they are real would be tremendously helpful as well. Thanks!

Not really sure how someone could weigh in on authenticity based on those photographs but I've been surprised before. . . . .

If i had a guess I would say they are all reprints. Especially the Shonen Ruth postcard since it looks about the size of a business card. The strip cards look to have white showing through where the are cracks and creases and that wouldn't happen since they were printed on a cardboard type of stock and not on white paper. Just my two cents for what it's worth. Hope it helps, Brad.

W551 reprint
 
The second scan from the left appears to be a W551 reprint.

All of the cards except for the one in the first photo (1930 Ray O Print) are very commonly reprinted (W551, Shonen Kulubu, W560, Rogers Peet, W515). As others mentioned, none of those look authentic, and I'm not sure of the Ray O Print either, which even if it were genuine would have minimal value (~$50).
