    I thought they were really cute and well done, and for a Dollar each I bought them.
    The frames measure 7 1/4" x 91/4"

    Thanks @i need help
    Would they be worth more or less because of the framing??

    They look home framed. And I think you'd have to ascertain they're genuine and not reproductions.

    Agree, home framed.
    The cards are real! Other than taking them apart to inspect the backs,which wouldn't be a good idea incase they glued them in.
    Measurements, printing type and paper all look real.

    Well, if glued in question about worth frame/unframed resolved, no?

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Yes! If glued in, they are just pretty pictures. Even if they are old originals, collectors of trade cards would not want them. Unless to decorate a display area of a collection of cards... maybe? Others might like them for decorative value, though.
