They are yellowed. Some of the stamps in the books have been used.

Hello Carol,
Your WWII era Ration books would value between 5-20 dollars each based on the condition as well as the content of stamps. We are seeing more of these enter the market now that this generation is dying off. These make for both great historical collectibles as well as vintage pieces of ephemera. People who are looking for vintage paper Americana would be buyers of your Ration books. If they are at all torn or stained this would devalue the books.
Thanks very much for your question today,
I hope this information was helpful,
Frank
