H&R Super Handcuffs 'New in Box'

this appears to be about as close to 'New in the box' as you can get:












Up for auction is this set of H&R Super 123 handcuffs in the very early original box marked with the “H&R ARMS” logo on the box label, instruction sheet and inspection slip. It is reported that early distributions of the Super handcuffs were shipped in boxes marked with the H&R ARMS logo, were the majority of the boxes did not have this logo. These boxes are extremely scarce.

This set is complete as it was shipped in 1943. The box contains the following original items; two piece box with H&R ARMS logo marked instruction inside the lid, Inspection slip dated June 14, 1943 and marked with the H&R ARMS logo, key with envelope, and original wrapper.

NOTE: the inspection sheet does not have a serial number assigned because these cuffs do not have a serial number. They are original to the box. The H&R Super handcuffs are in new and unused condition, retaining 100% of their original bright nickel plating. The outside of the top of the box has the H&R Company return address written in fountain pen. - eBay (27 April 09)

This set of handcuffs had a high bid of $202.50 (Plus $10 Shipping) but failed to meet the reserve price.
