There from 1932 keep bidding

you are right about the date on the cuffs...they were made in 1932...and were made by Smith & Wesson and were produced in Springfield, Mass...but were used in basically every prison in the united states in that era and were also used by the law enforcement of that day...

Apr 7th, 2012 at 9:21:20 AM PDT by

Yeah I got the date of the movie wrong I thought it was 1980

Apr 7th, 2012 at 12:17:39 PM PDT by

I took your advice and looked up the serial number for the cuffs and they are Police Prison issued cuffs most likely for Alcatraz and can be bought on Ebay.com for $45.00 and come with two keys...but they were not used in the movie Shawshank...or worn by Morgan Freeman...the ones used in the movie were props...not real...

Apr 7th, 2012 at 9:15:17 AM PDT by

Thank for the info, FYI shawshank redemption with Morgan Freeman was in 1994, not 1980 , that's what my research told me, that's the truth no lie.
