Description:Up for sale is a pair of vintage clamp-on roller skates finished in yellow with a metal body construction. These feature the classic adjustable sliding rail mechanism, allowing the length of each skate to be extended or shrunk to accommodate different shoe sizes, with oval-shaped articulated toe clamps that open and close to grip the sole of a shoe. The heel and ankle area is finished with curved wing-style metal guards. Each skate rolls on four wheels set on front and back axle assemblies, with the wheels finished in yellow and accented with red painted trim around the edges and red center caps, and spring components visible on the truck assemblies. No brand or maker markings were visible on either skate, so these are being listed as vintage clamp-on roller skates of unknown manufacture. As for condition, there is noticeable paint chipping and flaking on the wing-style heel guards, with the finish worn through to a black undercoat in several spots, consistent with age and use. The skates are being sold as-is given their vintage condition. A great find for a collector of vintage sporting goods, a prop/display piece, or anyone looking to restore a classic pair of clamp skates.
