plain cards from 1940's

[doolittle1.1.1]

Just found scrapbook from 1948 and in it has plain cards 2 1/4 x 3 1/2 . So far, I think they are Bond Bread cards. Each corner has tiny scotch tape angled residue from scrapbook, Jackie Robinson Rookie, Joe and Dom D. Rizzuto, B Thompson Ewell Blackwell Johnny Sain and more. Please advise next step... Any value here, because of tape residue?

If the cards are authentic, they will certainly have some value, even if it is diminished due to the tape. Can you post any pictures to confirm the identity of the set?

My scanner pisses me off at times also. Just to get some pics up you can use your phone. I do that a lot. Take pic with phone, email them to myself, open on computer, save on computer, and them upload them on here. Good luck.

The Bond Bread???????? cards I have (22) are very light colored on the back, no yellowing, but picture corners have tiny angular scotch tape, having been in picture holder to all those years. All pictures look very good, and I was prepared to have bad news on them until I read about the discoloring on the back. The $64 question is how to find out. Really struggling with sending pics to the computer...Douglas

These do not look like 47 Bond Bread cards. They look like the later issued square cards. Backs don't look white and because of amount of photo present they are not trimmed down to make them square cornered.

I have no experience, but I'd wait for some that do before using it.
