Looking at some of these ( too small to make any kind of opinion ) it seems to me you should follow the advice given to another member of this forum just a few days ago. He wanted to sell and did not really know what to do.
We advised him to contact the folks at an auction house - in his case I think it was Kelleher. He was very impressed with the knowledge and professionality of this auction house. Maybe you need to give them a call?

Thank you so much! That is what I am leaning towards doing but wanted to just have someone with an expert eye to look at a few and see if this seems the best route to go. I greatly appreciate your expertise and help!

Well I'll give you $500 for the 3 stamps on page 2 right now!

If you put them on ebay, and they're in as good shape as they appear, you'll likely get $1500-$2000 at least. But these 3 stamps are the 'gems' of what you've posted so far - and of any 'avid' US collection. Nothing else so far comes close in value - and likely won't. But again, one never knows - needs expert examination - up close. If all you want to do is sell everything, an auction house is an easy way to go...

I agree that, to judge from your three postings of photos, there is enough potential value here to warrant consulting an auctioneer. Have you posted the oldest stamps in the collection yet?

One thing to add obvious to collectors but maybe not the OP is the gum backside condition is very critical to the value. Major swings in selling price depending on the reverses. Leave it to experts though to examine as novice can easily create thousands of dollars in damage with mishandling. Good luck!
