I'd shadowbox them if I were you.

eBay is your best gauge. Don't know why you'd want to sell them, though.

WD, am I right in assuming that you have a collection of these also?

about 95% of my Michigan programs throughout the years, except for those that got so waterlogged during rainy weather that they weren't worth keeping. My oldest one is from the 1976 season, one year before I first had season tickets. I'm also missing a few from 1977-1979, but my collection from 1980 on is only missing ones from rainy days or the few games I didn't attend (mostly a small handful of games skipped when my kids were very young).
They're something I'll probably never part with, but I have no idea what they're worth, especially a few that were kept despite being in relatively bad shape.

My sister got me a Michigan-Wisconsin program from the 100 year anniversary year of 1979 to add to my collection. I don't know however, what she paid for it as it was a birthday gift.

Sorry to say but I checked and what you have is completely and utterly worthless. In the spirity of preservation, however, I would be happy to take these completely worthless and surely unwanted items off your hands, free of charge I might add, and will dispose of them properly so they are recycled and repurposed as scrap. Give me your email address and I'll send you instructions on where to ship this worthless crap you're now in possession of.
No need to thank me. Glad to help.

My favorite stuff to collect are REAL old Michigan pennants. I have around 10 from the 60's and earlier. I have a few from 60's bowl games. My earliest is one from the 20's...totally felt, stitched with string(pennants nowadays use clear fishing line type stuff), also has three sets of attached tassels. Very rare. One has a leather Michigan crest sown on with felt lettering. Probably from the 20's. Again, real rare. If anyone has OLD pennants, especially of UofM, Tigers, Lions, or Wings...let me know. I'll buy them.

I wish I'd kept more of the ones I had accumulated through the years - definitely kept ones that had autographs or were from particularly memorable games, so basically very select highlights from the last 25 years or so of Michigan football. My parents have some in storage from before then - my mother even kept a few from her time as a student in the 1960s.
It would be cool to see photos of what you have though!

There actually was a really cool Michigan sports memorabilia store on Liberty St. in Ann Arbor, but it just closed a couple of months ago. It was a shame. They had a ton of awesome stuff and I think they would also buy memorabilia. I think the owner can be contacted but I don't have his info.

I have an original program from every bowl game Michigan has ever played, starting with the 1948 Rose Bowl to last week's Citrus Bowl. Post 1975, most of them were obtained in person at the game. The only bowl game I don't have is the 1902 Rose Bowl. The last program I saw for that game went for over $20,000 in a Leland's auction about ten years ago.
As someone else replied, they are only worth what someone is willing to pay for them. There are a ton of Michigan programs out there.

For the others, just sell them on eBay. Unless they are 69' game or the first game in the big house, don't see how the value moves much in the future.
I too have seen them around $8-15 online.

I pulled out a few to page through during the holidays. A few interesting things I found in my 1984 UM/Washington game program besides the Harbaugh photos, was Jim Mora jr. was an assistant coach for Washington and looked really young.
In the 1989 UM/OSU game program there was a picture of DB Mark "Bo" Pellini in it on OSU's roster. It is kind of fun seeing how some of the past players are now coaches or still in football in some realm.

Anyone willing to buy/mail them for me if I reimburse? I'd be willing to pay a little extra as a thank you!
