You have group I and group II (group III Beehives have a brown wood grain border).

The value varies widely, with some only worth a few dollars and others worth much more. Often the more obscure players are the most valuable. And to further complicate things some players had variations in their photo that can make some variations very rare--and thus, more valuable.

Contact me if you are looking to sell, as I would be interested in knowing more about them.

Thanks for the info, Boysblue.

Any idea where I can look to find out this info? I did a bit of reading last night and found a few names of cards that were valuable, (none I have that I can see?) but the info seemed quite old and outdated?

Are the pics the main thing that gets judged for condition or is that also based on the paper/matting they are attached to?

I posted some info at vintagehockeyforum and they have received some interest for sure but I am unsure, at this point, what I am going to do with them?

Thanks again.
