Then there is the pair of Tower leg irons being offered as Houdini shackles. This pair was originaly offered for $999, now relisted at $499....
They certainly look like Tower leg irons to me, but the provenance is curious by its absence.
My favorites are the toy Takeda cuffs offered as part of a "policeman's estate".
