Need help. Are these vintage cards authentic?

I think the 50s cards look okay, but I am leery about the Ruth and Gehrig Goudeys. To me, the borders look a little too wide and too white for comfort, especially the Ruth. Plus, I have a beat up Gehrig '33 on my desk at work and comparing it to the scan, the colors on the scan are a little too dark (especially the bat and the face), which is the way reprints are. Get a money back guarantee or, better yet, get them evaluated by either a grading company or a respected third party expert before you fork over the bucks. They could be fine (it could just be a funny scan making the borders look so white), but I am not comfortable with them.
