Description
My brother found them when he was living in Dalton, Georgia in his backyard.
The prior owner left a box that contained the shackles and some confederate dollor bills in an old shed. My brother then gave the items to me because he knows I like to collect old stuff.
Re: Iron slave shackles
I have a pair identical to these shackles w/ the key and they work! Does anyone have an idea of how much they are worth or any more history????
Re: Iron slave shackles
They are not necessarily "Slave Shackles", the same things were used in prisons and chain gangs well into the 20th Century.
Re: Iron slave shackles
not old, possibly made in India
