Baseball figurines

Not the best picture.... I need some help identifying what these are. I've never seem before and have a few to sell. I'm guessing from the late 1950s?

Looks like a Hartland to me.

Definitely a Hank Aaron Hartland. Check ebay for comps of him and any others you might have. They were originally issued 1958-63(?) and re-issued in 1988. The originals bring good money; the later ones, not so much.

Looks to be an original (1958-62). You can tell for sure by the stamp in the plastic. In the originals it says Hartland Plastics. On the 25th Anniversary edition it says 25th. If I recall, the stamp is on his waist on the back.

The lighting in the photo isn't great but it looks pretty yellowed which will impact the price a bit.

These are the originals... 1958-1962.... definitely yellowed... and yes ... the lighting stinks on the pics. I appreciate the insight... I had no idea where to start. I'm building a light box to help with pictures
