I bought these at an estate sale for $5 for everything pictured, plus a few I'm keeping for myself, help with any ad and what they're worth would be appreciated

I've pictured the front and back of each ad, as far as I can tell everything is original

Thank you for the "help" but from what I've found so far the Pan American trading cards alone go for $25-30 each
With advertising subject matter and condition are everything.

Looks like some interesting subject matter, but a lot in fair to poor condition. Which is understandable, they appear to be 120+ years old.

The Kodak, Pabst, Van Camps, the medicine/perfume ones, and Pan Am cards seem to be the nicest. That said, the corners and edges aren’t great. They’d have to be framed with the matting taking away the least possible amount. Shame the Cream of Wheat side is damaged.

Whoever buys them will have to frame them, value of them unframed probably wouldn’t be much. The two Pan Am cards framed together would look neat, like you said they’re likely the most valuable. Other than those you’re probably looking at a few bucks each for the better ones. You might get someone in a bidding war if they want all of the Van Camps or Pabst for a kitchen or bar. Neat looking ads.
