Some old family heirlooms. These have no identification on them. I know they are well used and have little value, but would like to identify and display. Any help on identification and suggestions on cleaning without damaging would be greatly appreciated.

A lot of your lures are Heddon lures.I wouldn't clean just make a shadow box to display them in.If they are older wooden styles they are worth some $ if you had the boxes they came in they would be worth more.I wish they were all mine I have lost almost every single one at sometime or another.

Great old lures. Could be 30's or 40's vintage. Don't do anything to them, just protect them now. Keep indoors. Some may have real value.

I remember, as a child, our old fishing camp and tackles boxes full of old lures and terminal tackle, old outboards, and rod and reels. My family sold sporting goods. Makes me cringe to think of what happened to it all. Nonetheless, the few that remain bring back wonderful memories.

No Heddon lures in that group.What you do have is Creek Chub, Paw Paw Bait, Co, Clark, and South Bend, the rest are knock off's of popular lures. Most are in the $2.00- $20.00 range for the condition of those lure's.
