Help Identifying Old Handcuffs?

Can anyone help identify what type/brand/era/value etc....these might be? They were given to us at an estate sale in Southern California and that's about all the info we have. It looks like there is possibly a worn out # on them -- but too worn to decipher.

I Had trouble with the Image Services but here is a link to the photos:

Hi--I had owned a near-identical pair myself.

The inside padding is the give-away...they are movie prop shackles.

Thank you for your response. So are movie props worth anything? Do you think they are just designed to look old or could they be old movie props?

Unless you have documentation that ties them to an actor and/or to a TV or film production...they would just be a curiosity, or something to hang on the wall.

Value? Whatever the market will bring. That, I don't know.
