lures from 40s,50s,and 60s

So about a year ago my elderly aunt asked if I wanted her dead husband's fishing gear not being the first time someone has offered me fishing gear I said yes expecting some cheap stuff that I may never use comes to find out my long dead uncle was an avis fisherman I ended up with tons of old lures and two pflueger reels was wondering of anyone was knowledgeable on old fishing tackle not looking to sell maybe some of them more trying to start collecting

No idea what you got, but if you got any mint condition OG hand crafted wood Rapalas i would hold on to them!?

I've been fishing for over fifty years and might be able to identify some for you. If you post some pictures i will take a shot at "name that lure" and I'm sure many other members will be able to help as well.

same here, I have been collecting lures for 30 years or so from the early 1900's to the 70's, I have about 3,000 lures in my collection.
if you can send me some photos also , I could tell you value and id.
the pic in my avatar is of some of the lures in my collection, scott.
