My dad gave me these old baseball postcards. Does anyone here know anything about them and whether or not they have any value?

Thank you in advance.

Nice postcards.

Some names from the first postcard can likely be seen in the clipping below for Newark Valley. This is from a Binghamton newspaper, so that adds up.

Here is a link for some information on the Oneonta postcard:

The East Branch postcard is probably from New York as well. It's not dated that I see, but looks to be from the same era. I can't say much else about that one.

They certainly have some value. The Oneonta postcard seems to have a few guys that had a cup of coffee in the majors, so there is value there. You would have to confirm names for significant value on the others. In the general range of $25-$75 for each? Maybe a little more or less depending on the postcard. The lower part of that range would probably be East Branch, then Newark Valley, and finally Oneonta towards the top. That's just my opinion, you never know what someone is willing to pay though. Finding a big name is usually the key to these type of postcards.

No idea on the value but cool postcards. East branch is about 45 minutes east of Binghamton. They are all close to where I live.
It's interesting that the East Branch team post card is addressed to Pepacton, that town no longer exists it was destroyed when they put in a reservoir for the New York city water supply. Oneonta is close to Cooperstown.

Oneonta has sold in Love of the Game Auctions for ~$125-150.

Thank you so much for the input everyone. This is why I respect this message board so much. I consider myself a bit of an expert in sports memorabilia, but you guys know way more than I do.

I may list these items later on the B/S/T board, so keep your eyes open if you are interested.
