They are proof tickets, the tell-tale sign being there are no seat assignments or section numbers printed on the ends. Proofs, like with cards and other printed matter, were used by the printers to check for color balance, printing errors, ink bleed and other imperfections. Proofs also might be submitted to the customer to sign off on before the printing run was started.
Minimal value in general, unless the ticket is a phantom (made for an event that ended up not being played) or for a very special event for which "real" tickets are rare. That's not the case with these. I would say $25-$30 each.
