Then I disagree completely with those who've recommended not getting them graded. Sent to SGC and in any holder they are willing to slab them in, you will inarguably get more at auction than the cost of the grading ($7 plus part of the overall shipping per card).
There are plenty of buyers for off-grade material, and the one thing grading them does is reassure those buyers that someone hasn't faked the aging process on the cards. This is especially so with cards like yours that display very similar wear, which often is a red flag of a seller who just mocks up aging a group of cards with the same techniques stupidly repeated card to card.

But it's great to see a grouping like yours which has survived together for so long, and 'enjoyed' the travails of an earlier collector to still be of enjoyment to new owners!
