Like Frank said.  Looks like 19" front and 16" rear.  Those were the standard versions.  The ones with the bare edges on the spokes were called Highlighted.  There was also a 2ND generation Lester wheel that had a different groove along the side of the rim.

are there Lesters that don't have the name cast in? usually found on a spoke with the size in inches?
If it works good, it looks good...

These are a set of 19” Front/ 18” Rear. “LESTER” and the size in inches, is cast on one spoke.
