Attractive in their antique utilitarian design, we have an interesting 19th/Early-20th century ice skate collection of 5 pairs, highlighted by two pairs that feature wooden bases. The first wooden base pair include desirable curled blade tips and finished wood bases, with each blade having a small oval termination knob. The second wooden base pair feature arching blade tips that curl into the base, with each stamped “Douglas Rogers Norwich CT” with a patent date of “Mar 17 1869”. Next, we have 2 pairs of solid metal clamp-design skates, with the “Long Beach Club” skates produced by “Keene MF’G” out of Keene NH, with both 1884 and 1888 patent dates, while “The Brownie” pair in size 11 have patent dates of “June 24, 02”. The final pair is very simple in design with a single base and curled blade fronts, with a single opening through each blade to accommodate strapping.
