These all look like reprints to me. Cue insults and the reasons why I'm an idiot and don't know what I'm talking about.

Thanks for the input guys. I will try and get some better pics(my scanner is broken). I don't know anything about pictures but from collecting older cards I notice they have that "vintage smell". Should I try and send them to get authenticated or should I not even bother?
