Kevin,
Haven't seen a wooden one since the late 70's. I think they were Jakes protos. Don't remember any wooden ones for sale. Even his first ones were plastic and made in Ohio.
They came in the rectangular plastic boxes.
A wooden original grandma would be big medicine though.......... PS

Here are a couple 9 inch old style composites with the "grandma" on the lip next to what I think are old 13"ers. This is why I asked for comparison photos.
Thanks
Kevin

In one off the last musky hunters is an artikel obout big baits,
they refer to the wooden 13"grandma's and the four hook design. Which is changed into three hooks and a plastic lure to make them more widely useable.
(and faster to manufacture)

I agree with Northern. Those look like the older 13 inchers to me. It was the last MH they were talking about that bait.
