Antique French Leg Irons from Devils Island, French Guiana 1852-1953

Very nice set of antique Leg Irons. Looking at it after the fact, I'm wondering why I didn't try to get these:/

These leg irons were used to transport French prisoners to the island. The leg irons are locked with a screw and the key is a simple cylinder with a notch that engages the nub on the recessed screw head. These leg irons were probably made by the French company, Revolier in large quantities. 3 variations are known in this size and they are simply the style of chains used as the cuff bodies are all exactly the same. There are larger or more robust versions of these chains as well. The large center ring was used to slide a chain through which made any movement even more restricted. The restraint pictured above, has had no work done to it. It is mechanically perfect and both screws are able to thread into the lock body with the key provided. No pings, dings, dents, or repairs noted. A very nice addition to anyone's collection. - eBay (27 Feb 2022)

This set of Leg Irons had a high bid of $250 (Plus $5 Shipping). -----

VINTAGE HIATT CAP LOCK 'HANDCUFF'

This is a very simple design but also very secure once the chain gets passed through the hole. This is the working end of prison chains that once locked prisoners together for transport.

VINTAGE HIATT CAP LOCK HANDCUFF. Greetings, Hello fellow collectors, Here is a very scarce cuff, complete with the cap lock cover. I suspect this hiatt was made late 19th to early 20th century. The cuff is in very good condition and would make a fine edition to any collection as many advanced collections lack this piece. The cuff would of been likely attached to a transport chain with a group of prisoners. Condition of this item is excellent as most are a rust bucket that i have seen over the years. Normal ware and tear is present and some light oxidation. The cap fits perfectly, it does have a small ding you can see in the last pic. Outstanding specimen! Ships priority mail with insurance. Only ships to the lower 48 and no international of any kind. Comes with a money back guarantee! - eBay (March, 2022)

This 'Handcuff' had a bid of $334.99 (Plus $15 Shipping) but the auction was ended by the seller 'because the item was no longer available'. -----
