Leg Irons - Rankin Style

This is a rare set of leg irons. However, it is in such bad condition that it did not find a buyer at the asking price. Look at it this way, once the prices start getting to $400 and higher, buyers that have that money are also willing to pay more for items in better condition.





Antique leg irons in the style of Rankin. We do not have the screw key, but they are unlocked (they close and will pull open). There are no markings. Overall length is 22 ½”. Cuffs are approximately 4” by 4 ½” by ¾” thick.

Leg irons have patina and marks consistent with use and age. Surface rust. Last link on one end of chain has break. Please see photos for condition. If you have any questions, or would like more photos, please ask before the last day of the auction. - eBay (3 Feb 2011)

This set of leg irons had an opening bid of $400 (Plus $5.20 Shipping) but failed to receive any bids.
