The Handcuff Gallery @handcuffs.org
This is a gallery of vintage handcuffs. The date given is the date of the original patent of the hancuff shown or the approximate date of introduction. The country of origin is the place where the cuff is thought to have been manufactured. Some of the data in this table is in doubt and there are almost certainly errors. Please send an email or leave a note in the guestbook if you can correct any errors or supply any additional information about the items pictured here.
Vintage handcuffs are defined roughly as those made from the time of the American Civil war through the 1970s. Many more modern handcuffs exist, but they are intentionally not included with this gallery.
