it's not so much as where to sell.as it is to prove they are original. that would require and appraisal. unless there copies.

You have a big job in front of you.  Provenance and authentication being the first two items on the to do list.  

I don't even know where to tell you to begin to start.  Maybe the museums for the presidents.
