For Sale: Towers Heavy Double-Locking Leg Irons — Cowboy Style — Excellent Condition
A superb vintage pair of Towers heavy double-locking leg irons (cowboy style), offered in excellent condition with a working key and ~99% original nickel plating. These were the top-of-the-line leg irons of their day — stout, secure, and notoriously difficult to pick.
Type: Towers double-locking leg irons — heavy, cowboy style
Condition: Excellent; tight action, fully functional, w/key
Finish: Approx. 99% nickel plated — bright, original surface remaining
Security: Built to be nearly tamper-proof for the era — “almost impossible to pick” in typical field use
Provenance / Iconography: This style of leg iron (and matching cuffs) appears in many old-time photographs of escape artists and variety performers — think classic period publicity shots of Houdini and his contemporaries — making them highly desirable for collectors and prop specialists.
Use: Great for collectors, museums, period displays, or film/theater props where authentic look and heavy-duty construction matter
Please see pics for overall condition.
$10.00 USPS Flat Rate Priority (U.S. only)
International shipping quotes available.
Payment accepted via PayPal, Zelle, CashApp, Apple Pay, Venmo, or major credit cards.
