Default 4 by 5 glass negatives

Have searched and searched and not seen much of a market for these. I inherited a few dozen old glass 4 x 5 negatives. Most are Detroit Tigers from the 1920's. A couple of Walter Johnson, one of golfer Bobby Jones. Because of the negative size, they make amazing photos. I've attached 3 that I scanned and converted to photos.

I'd like to sell or auction them, but it seems like they're not worth more than a couple dollars each. Anyone have a clue? What I don't get is why a type-1 photo of, say, Bobby Jones seems to have more value than the negative would.

Thanks for any info!
