Sunshine high flange hubs
These are an early version (70s) of the Sunshine high flange hubs, stamped 5345 on the hub shell.
The have engraving from what is believed to be a previous owners drivers license number, but are otherwise in pretty good condition. They spin smoothly but I have not had them apart for a bearing repack.
Note that the rear hub is french threaded oddly enough!
$25 shipped

Update to the listing: just discovered that the rear hub is french threaded! I had not even considered the possibility until I was trying to do a freewheel swap earlier today.

At least the previous owner had good penmanship on that engraving, maybe a draftsman. GLWTS

I might be interested in buying them for their cones. I need to remember to check, and I have been failing to do so. Today is a new day.
