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'. -----
