Early Dutch Ratchet Handcuffs

[Brian Morland]

We have this one in the Heritage Rooms Colection which we know little about: it was one of many items we aquired from the Dutch Frima collection so asume its European. Peter Frima was in charge of the Dutch Police Training School just before and after WWII but I think its older than that.

This is an interesting handcuff made by Mulenfeld Barmen. It was their model 113. Their handcuffs became known as either Berliner or Dortmunder. The set I have in my collection are actually stamped with their name. Would be interested to know if the set you have have any markings.
