Early 1900's? How about 1962-1964. They all have the date rubber stamped inside on the side walls. This is the metal Dispatcher series pack set.

As far as value, not much. This forum is intended for two-way radio industry people and fellow ham radio enthusiasts to trade technical information and help each other. Not so much an antique appraisal site or Craigslist assistant forum, so opinions can vary a lot. It's basically worth what someone will pay. Put it on eBay starting at $ 10 and see what happens.

If I've USED these, does this make me 'antique'??

Only if you pulled the radio out of the original shipping box. :)
