Is there any wire left on them? Is it a matter of rewinding what's there or is the wire gone? Most of those would have been wound with cotton or silk covered wire which is pretty hard to find these days. I think I'd try to find as many pictures on the web of different ones and get an idea that way. There are probably "shadows" on the coil forms showing the approximate gauge of the wire and the width of the entire windings. Take the units apart and wind away using a suitable gauge modern enameled wire. Not original, but...they're no longer original anyway.
