The name of the magazine is "Baseball Cards", and I found two issues, one from September 1990 with Robin Yount on the cover, and the other from July 1991 with Darryl Strawberry on the cover.


1990 issue: http://www.ebay.com/itm/DARRYL-STRA...ps=63&clkid=2532076681777772784#ht_2357wt_906
The Sept 1990 includes these cards:
49 Ventura/Sosa
50 John Orton/Scott Radinsky
51 Bobby Rose/Bob Hamelin
52 Monty Farriss/ Juan Gonzalez
53 Tino Martinez/Roger Salkeld
54 Terry Jorgensen/Paul Sorrento


1991 issue: http://cgi.ebay.com/DARRYL-STRAWBER...LL-CARDS-MAGAZINE-/200471965421#ht_2357wt_906

The July 1991 includes these cards:
37 Ken Griffey Jr.
38 Sean Berry/Brian McRae
39 Roger Clemens
40 Ellis Burks
41 Robin Yount
42 Frank Thomas


Any idea what these are? Any value to any of them? They're available for trade, I'd prefer to trade the entire magazine, because I don't want to tear them out of it, and they come three to a panel.

Thanks!

Krause Publications, among others, produced cards in their magazines in the mid 80s to mid 90s, possibly later. Often they are referred to as replicards because they copy popular designs of already manufactured sets.

They are listed in the SCD almanac. Collector interest is mainly for those player and oddball collectors. Most of the cards have a minimal value, between a few cents to a buck or a little more for some of the best players featured.

Those cards you have feature 1969 and 1966 style cards and both sets ran an entire year in the magazine for 72 card sets. You can actually find large lots of the magazines online and in hobby shops that carry that type of stuff for relatively cheap, but shipping is usually a killer.
