Original Manuals??

In going thru my Dad's plunder I have found a couple manuals, in what looks like original carrying pouches? One is OD canvas, the other heavy plastic or rubber.
The manuals appear to both be the same manual but each in it's own bag.
Army TM 9-2320-361-10
Air Force To 36A12-1B-1094-1

I guess my question is do these have any value? Or interest? My Dad's truck is a 1952 M135 so we don't need them. We gave the truck to my Son who is a veteran and he has a lot of interest in keeping it on the road, and could use and money or usable trade items in return for these. But we have no idea if they are worthless or valuable?
Any help or ideas appreciated.
Thanks

Most TM manuals can be sold on eBay for about $10.00 to $40.00 depending on condition and rarity. The most expensive go for around $75.00 and are usually engine manuals. Yours are "Operator" manuals so expect to get around $10.00 to $20.00 for them.

Lots of folks like paper manuals, so someone might buy them. Especially if it was up to date had all the changes in it. That manual is in the TM forum in digital form. So you can look and see if its complete. The pouches should bring you some money also, if they are in good shape.
