Description: RARE 1921 Antique Winchester roller Stakes Adjustable First Edition | See Bio A chance to owe a extremely rare piece of history It was Dr. James L. Plimpton of Medfield, Massachusetts, who is credited with inventing the roller skate in 1863. Three years later, Everett H. Barney, of Springfield, Massachusetts, patented a metal clamp to fasten the skater’s shoes to the metal roller skates. In 1920, the company was purchased by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. By 1929, Winchester had all but halted its production of these general consumer goods and tools due to their unprofitability. Because of the relatively short production period, these items—including the skates—are highly-prized collectibles. Skates are 105 years old and the rust you would expect. As of right now they are just a collector piece but with some TLC could become usable again! Please REVIEW ALL PICTURES carefully to determine item's condition.Your definition of Like New, Excellent, Very Good, Good, etc. may differ from mine so if you have ANY QUESTIONS, please message me before purchasing. I do my best to describe items as accurately as possible. This item will be mailed promptly, safely and securely with tracking. Thank you for your time :)
