i would suspect that it would be the normal .355 tip. they didn't have .370 back then. however, there were clubs the the shaft went on the outside of the hosel. odds are, that it's the normal shaft. a True Temper dynamic Gold or the Royal Precision Rifle flighted are very good shafts, depends on kind of ball flight you want

.

Most likely they're taper tips, (.355").

These come in varying lengths from about 37" to 41" and are usually purchased as sets. They must be sized according to the club they're for as "tipping" is generally not done and 1st step dimensions are critical to overall flex and playability.

Try calling a place like Golfsmith and tell them what you have. They'll probably be able to look up the clubs and make recommendations for shafts.
