The Roy Campanella in the upper left corner is quite valuable as well... maybe $30-$200 depending on condition.

The second photo with the yellow cards, those are 1958 Topps Baseball.

In general, any of the bigtime iconic stars n those sets will be quite valuable:

Mickey Mantle
Willie Mays
Jackie Robinson (53)
Roberto Clemente (58),
Ted Williams (58)
Hank Aaron

If I were you, you can sell to me for a few bucks... lol ... or better yet, take the time to go thru and do a thorough inventory. You have some valuable cards there.
Actually the first photo is from the 1953 Topps Archives set, released in 1991. The giveaway is the 9-pocket sheets used. The original set was bigger and fit in 8-pocket sheets
