What you can find when cleaning up a closet part 2

After "What you can find when cleaning up a closet part 1" here is part 2. As told in part 1 this has nothing to do with WWII but I found it interesting enough to tell here because it is about minis and a bit about casting.
What we have here are rubber molds from my childhood times. That is about 34 years ago. I found a date saying 1977. (I am feeling old now.) They were stashed away in a metal box.
The molds are to be used to cast historical minis.
As being a child at the time these molds are selected, it was not to form an army but they were more selected as what I thought where cool looking minis.
There are 10 molds and the molds are from Prinz August. Looking at it now I regret that I never bought the molds to cast horses to pull the cannon.
I am wondering if these molds could still be used to cast minis.
Let's take a look.
