Found Gas Masks

I found these while cleaning out an abandoned house. I'm not a collector and have no knowledge of them. I'd like to find out if they have any value. Can anyone identify them and give me some info?
Thanks,
Broadbill

I would say most definitely Russian gas masks, and im pretty sure that they are 1970s issue because in 1980 they started making a new type of gas mask with the filter attached to the mask it self instead of having a can attached to a hose connecting it to the mask.

These masks are both 1970's/1980's Russian Childs Gas Masks, the one on the left is a PDF-D, and the one on the right is a PDF-Sh, as for value it probably won't be much due to these being very easy to find in new and unissued condition

However, they are very nice finds

Thanks
