Are these lures worth anything?

Going through my boxes of fishing tackle and came across these. Figured you guys would be the best to consult with!

They dont look like they have ever been used once, not a scratch on them or a speck of rust on the hooks

Jeff,

I have a couple of lure collector books. Let me look them up and see if they are listed. Any dates on the boxes?

Done....

The River Runt Spook 1939 - 1982 (2 1/4") $20 - 25 looking at the condition and you have the box I'd say top end $ wise

Helin Flatfish 1933 (patented) 3 3/8" $5 - 10

Who is the maker of the red and white one? Does the box say shakespeare?

That last one is sweet if you decide to sell it let me know.

Thanks man!

Yes it is Shakespeare.

I will probably sell all of these, not looking for top dollar. Just want to make sure I don't have something extremely super rare, because then Id have to keep it!

Those would make a great display box for the wall of a "man cave".

Get an old black and white snap shot of someone fishing, or holding up some catch and make it the back drop of the display box.


Something like this.





Maybe add some old bobbers and/or an old reel to the box as well.

Cool stuff.  It reminds me of Dad's tackle box.

Just sold some like those for over 25 on ebay

send frankfishing a PM......he would know 

Last lure turned out to be a Shakespeare Dopey

Took a friends advice and listed them on Ebay, and let it run for 10 days.

I have three of those lures,but no boxes,from what i have read the boxes make all the difference in the value, I know once i read an article and a guy had a Heddon Pumpkinseed,(wood with wood lip) it sold for over $60k as best as i can remember.

Sara got me a couple of those flatfish and a popper from some store in BC for my birthday.  Love these old lures!
