In the 1920s, fresh off of lucrative World War 1 military contracts, the legendary Winchester sought to diversify from a manufacturer of solely firearms and ammunition to a broad-based gun, hardware, and sporting goods operation. This pair of Vintage 1920s Winchester “LAKE PLACID” Model Clamp-On Metal Ice Skates are in Good Condition, with heavy drying, stiffening, darkening, and surface cracking to the leather heel supports and heel straps, and with some overall scratching, spot patina, and age wear evident. Otherwise, the skates are in fine shape, with absolutely no cracking or other damage to the tough metal construction. Most interestingly, they boast the classic “W” for Winchester incised toes, with the number “5332” (likely the model number) stamped above, sport the original brown leather heel supports and heel straps, and are stamped along each left side with their model name, “-LAKE PLACID-”, the size, “10”, and their maker, the famous “WINCHESTER / -TRADEMARK- / MADE IN U.S.A.”. They are a correct left and right pair, feature the original metal key still attached with a blue and white cotton string, and are a fine example of rare, original Vintage 1920s Winchester “LAKE PLACID” Model Clamp-On Metal Ice Skates.
