I had cards like yours. Also classic albums (LPs). Sold a lot of them on Ebay. Bought classic books. LOL
Be honest. Ship fast and you'll do well. You get 50 free auctions. Just keep recycling the cards, if they don't sell right away. Start with lower end ones first to get a good rating, then go big.
I mailed my albums in pizza boxes I got for free. Unused of course. Just went around and asked parlors for a couple and got them for free. People loved the idea and how I secured them with Walmart type bags. LOL

Man I have like 4 scrap books of cards from the 80’s. I gave them to my son years ago.
In be interested to see how much they are worth. I probably have close to 1000 cards.

Hate to break it to you, but the card companies produced cards on a massive scale in the 80's and 90's. With a few exceptions, most star cards from that era are a couple of bucks at most, with other stars and semi-stars at the 25-50 cent mark. The vast majority would be a nickel.
As far as the three cards in question, they look to be rough - not terrible shape, mind you, but have been handled quite a bit. I'd put them at the good-very good range. The Aaron and Maris are off-centered a bit, and the Mays is pretty dog-eared. If I could have had those when I was a teen (and on a budget) I would have been stoked, though.
I'm not a card dealer. I haven't collected in over 20 years. This is just my opinion. If it were me, I'd just hang onto them for the great-grandkiddies one day.

Yeah I realize that and that’s why I gave them to my son. I didn’t ever think they would be worth much. I don’t think I have anything older than 78-79 in my collection. I’ll have to go back and take a stroll through memory lane.

I've got some stupid looking "Honus Wagner" card if anyone is interested. It's not even the same size as regular baseball cards. lol.

All my cards are in mint condition. They’ve been in the same scrap book since 1986.
Probably stuck to the plastic though so not sure if I would be able to slide them out.

They didn't have those PVC free ones in those days. That binder might be a chemical cesspool now!
