Default Carburetor ID Help

Got these two at a swap meet in a box of 94's and need help pinning them down.
The gold tint one is a Carter and the Aluminum cast one is a Detroit Lubricator. Would like some help in understanding what years , brands and models they were used in and anything on their value which I know may be subjective. Thanks!

Here´s your detroit on an intake...
Thoose early 1 barrels aren´t to fun to tune...think most driving the cars got rid of them and went with a later intake.

The Carter one barrel is a YF model. Don't know the application, but it appears to have a brass tag on it with the carter part number. If you tell us that number, it's pretty easy to find the application. The other carb (Detroit Lubricator) appears to be the type used on '32 and '33 Ford V8's. "Charlie ny" on this forum should be able to confirm that or not.

The Detroit Lubricator is 1933 Ford and not worth much.Even at $25 on EBAY they sit.
