Can't tell from the pics but if those 3 plugs in the first pic are wood plugs they may be worth something. Original Lucky Louie wood plugs that are tunable are sought after - especially by guys who like to use them in the Tyee Pool.
 
These all look to be wood. First 3 have hole through for line with a metal sleeve. Also acrylic eyes. The last on is wood also.
 
1 plug is 5”. The other 4”.
Fish assassin has suggested they are Sea Kings from the 30’s which makes sense based on the vintage of reels and some old Sea Gear line spools with them.

Thanks to those who have replied or sent me messages. Interesting stuff.
hard to know what treasures are in boxes of old fishing gear.
 
Maybe $5 apiece, if a Minser wood Louie, maybe $25. Most Lucky Louies are marked "Lucky Louie" on the belly. Some have a patent number.
Glass eye plugs worth a little more than pressed eye plugs. Hell, rig 'em up and fish 'em!! Never can tell, might have a keeper!
