After opening up a new box full of miscellaneous items, i've uncovered two more sets of cuffs.
Can any of you help me identify what these are?

The first is a large set, which is marked with 'HIATT' and two characters after the stamp which might be '75'?
The cuffs look like leg irons, but I do not see them listed on this site. Each cuff is 4 1/2" wide.






The second set is smaller than most of the cuffs i've seen recently. It's a Darby adjustible, and is marked with 'C & W R 216'. There is a plating that is peeling off on some parts of the cuffs. Each cuffs is only approx. 3 - 3 1/2" wide.

I didn't want to start a new thread for this, but I am selling a few more items on eBay.
Now that these items are up on eBay, I will be posting pics of other cuffs I have discovered recently, in addition to the two pictured above.

Thanks for looking,
James

Quit using this site as a repository for your pictures, which always precede and lead into one of your massive mundane cuff sales. Stick to magnets, son.

Thanks for your reply.

After searching a bit, I see there was a Columbia & Western Railway that operated in the BC Interior.
This page describes a bit about the line.

However, I don't know if this set of cuffs has anything to do with them.
