Description
MID-1800S LOCKING SHACKLES
Pair of mid-1800s locking shackles, 18" long overall, hand-forged steel with individual locks operated by turning the keys (provided) until the hasp is freed. Though it is not possible to definitively state that these are slave-used shackles, they share many common characteristics with those employed by slave dealers and slave owners at the time. Very good. Sold with an unrelated period lock marked "U.S.", heavily rusted.
