I have two sets of handcuffs and one come along. They have the keys, no broken parts and fully functional. I had them for over 30 years. The only information I found was the following.
I think this information is correct.

Printed in both cuff back cheeks:
MFGD. BY SMITH & WESSON.
Printed in both cuff front bow:

they are only worth what someone is prepared to pay at the time, but i would suggest that you put them on eBay.
You can also follow some of the auctions for the same cuffs which come up quite often.

SOLD ON EBAY.I sold it for the Buy now price of $275 before the auction finished. I think I might have been able to sell it for more if i just left it as auction only as there was 2 day remaining and 13 bidders.
Thanks for the ebay advice.
