Old shotgun shells

Does anyone know anything about these. How old are they. What are they worth. Where can I sell them. The ranger, Winchester are full and the Remington is half full.

Thanks Pop

The yellow box of Winchester Rangers are post 1935. I'm pretty sure that that box design was dropped after production resumed after WW II.

The red box of Ranger shells is post circa 1947 because the shells have the Super Seal Crimp and the Super Seal Wad. I THINK that box design was used into the late 1950s to early 1960s.

The third box is most likely 1933 (when Du Pont purchased Remington) to just before World War II.

Man, those take me back! Don't know about value, but there are a lot of people who love old stuff like that.
