Alan, those appear to be well-preserved specimens.
I still use several of the C-cell types.
Just to complete the picture, here is a Ray-O-Vac Sportsman which uses 5
D-cells. It belonged to my wife's Dad, and worked well for many years,
but seems to have a problem in the switch circuit now. I included a
dime for scale.
