Just been clearing out the attic and found these framed pictures from the good old days! Any idea whether these would be worth anything and the best way to go about selling them? Cheers for any info!

They're worth what somebody will pay for them.
Sorry if that seems anodyne but that's the only way to measure it.
I'd guess that if you can find 2-3 people who collect Burnley items on ebay they might fetch IRO £100 but you'd be hard pressed to get any more than that.
They look to me like they came from the shop at the bottom of St. Jame's Street (?) who used to sell these kind of frames. I've got one very similar to the photograph and that's easily replicable.
The sketch of Jimmy Mullen and the players looks rarer to me and therefore potentially worth more than the photograph. Whoever dreew it was clearly a talented artist.

If the frames are in good condition take out the pictures and get them on ebay as you might get a few quid for them

I'd a mate who collected and sold a lot of stuff like this, some of it autographed.. He got nowhere near what he paid for it. About a tenner each, I'd say. Maybe the Turf photo a little more but not much.

That's a good offer.
The frames are cheap and the pictures are mass produced, so in a charity shop maybe £2.50 each.
The Turf Moor picture is worth a bit more, as it's better framed, it's depends on the size too, so maybe a tenner for that.

£100

Depends if you can get more than one party bidding against each other.
My Dad sold some programmes from MK Dons for £20.
Twenty English Pounds for a couple of MK Dons programmes.
