I remember the Dunlop valve on some bikes in the 1960s. I liked those.

All the others I recall from my youth were Schrader, which I think are superior to Presta valves. Certainly more durable, and can even be fixed if the valve core goes bad.

I remember having a valve core stem wrench, for removing the cores or tightening them up. Still have it in my toolbox.
