Today wire of the same gauge might be a bit thicker due to thicker warnish coating.
Still you could simply use calipers and the gauge table to see what it was.
I think I used gauge 32 on most of my Philco (and others) RF coils.
Simply count turns and note winding direction. Make sketches, always helpful and is something to fall back on when you forget how it was before.
Those are simple 1-layer coils, no magic to it.
Ask if you need to bake the bobbins in this particilar case before you wind.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
