1936-1937 John Player and Sons

I was walking through an outdoor market in Italy and came across some British non-sports cards from 1936 and 1937. I dont know anything about them but figured I would grab them as they are kind of interesting.

The sets are:
An album of motor cars (complete)
An album of birds and their young (complete)
An album of national flags and arms (complete)
an album of international air liners (missing 4)
The coronation of H.M. King George VI and H.M. Queen Elizabeth (complete)
A cigarette pictures album that contains about 150 misc cards from Britain's Defences/Wildlife in Danger/History of British Military Aircraft/Uniforms of the territorial army/DeReszke Pet photos/Bicycling/River Valleys

I know they aren't worth much, but any help to value would be appreciated.

Thank you

If their Mint the complete sets sell for $4-$10 each add a few more dollars for the albums. Incomplete $3-$6, the lot of 150 if all John Player sons misc best guess is $15-$25 for all of them.
This set I actually sold a couple years ago, I think $15 complete in NM-Mt, the coronation of H.M. King George VI and H.M. Queen Elizabeth (complete)

Just my best guess from selling a lot of these over the years and seeing whats on E-bay all the time.

Thanks for the response Neil. Any interest in these items?

You are very lucky to have found them. I'd LOVE to find something like that. It took me until January of this year before I was able to hunt down any tobacco cards at all, arriving to me the day before your post, in fact. The subjects you found are all good ones, too!
