Tie one on... Reel one in...

[AlienLifeForm]

OK lure wizards, I have a few of these things I can't identify - and I don't really know the value of the lot. Took a gamble at $30 for the box, did I get hosed?

Came with two vintage reels, but both are missing handles:

1. Thunderbird No. 1913 Reel made by Horrocks - Ibbotson
2. Atlas 1708 Mod. D reel made by Kalamazoo Tackle Co.

What would this whole lot be worth? Thanks!

Looks like you got yourself a good selection of vintage Texas poppers and toppers there! I've heard of the Atlas and know that they used to be quite desirable. But I've been out of the game so long that I have NO idea what they're worth anymore. Maybe do an eBay search and see what has sold and for how much.

Looks like a nice haul for sure!!

I know nothing about these but gotta believe you could at least double your money.

With all those gems, it should be EASY to double your money! Some of those lures might even go for better than $30 each.

Thanks y'all. Anyone know what the unidentifed ones are? I think one might be a dikfer, but I am not sure.

I think the two lures in pic. no.2 are Heddon Sonics. I have a couple but they have the name on the side, I think. Could be a knock off but Sonics I believe is what they are...d2
