Rusty Set of Bean Giant handcuffs

I'm calling it a rusty set but still this is nicer than nothing. However, it seems that the seller prefered to hold onto it as the level that the bidding reached.

Very rare Bean Giant handcuffs. The handcuffs are complete and working. The cuffs have lost most of their plating but are functioning properly and the springs for the release buttons are strong. But overall in a very good condition and look better in real than on the photo's. The supplied flat key is original. - eBay (24 July)

This Bean Giant had a high bid of $511 (Plus $25 Shipping from the Netherlands) but failed to meet the reserve price.

DK Miller Pancake Advertising Padlock Railway

Yes, this sold for $3,000!

Here we have to offer an early D.K. Miller, push key, pancake padlock manuafactured approximately 1875. This is actually not a working padlock but one of the rare pieces that they made as advertising or promotional items. In researching the Miller Lock Company over the years, we found that they had a good association with the Fairbanks Morse Company as they were a distributor and manufacturer of railroad supplies amongst tons of other items. This piece is in fabulous condition with what apears to be much of the original paint intact. Originally nickel plated, some of this is worn away over the years but overall it is such a rare piece and the condition is great. - eBay (12 June 2010)

This padlock had a high bid of $3,000 (Plus $10 Shipping).
