I would also go to eBay, do a search of completed auctions for Lyle and Ventura guitars, see if there are some that look like yours, and make an estimate of the value based on the sale prices in auctions where the item actually sold.  Do consider the relative condition of the eBay guitars and yours when comparing them.  
Also look here:

...for Lyle and Ventura and see what other brand names were put on guitars made by the same factory.  Also search eBay for guitars with those brands. You may find examples of your guitar model with a different name.  These would also provide an idea of the value of your guitars.  
Good luck,
