Origin of these two types of cards

I recently found these in my parent's basement and was wondering if anyone could tell me what types of "cards" they are and if they are worth anything. Neither have any writing on the back. The Grover Cleveland card has the Roman Numerals for 1982 on bottom right, with the words "Davco Publishers, Skokie, IL" next to it. Thanks.

    The Cy Young card is an Exhibit, a card made by the Exhibit supply co. of Chicago. See the link I provided for a current auction on Ebay of a similar exhibit.

    The Cy Young card is a HOF exhibit- they were originally issued in '48, but reprinted and widely distributed in the early '70's.

    My first reaction upon seeing the Alexander was that it looked like something done by Perez Steele. I will have to look this up now.
