Title

Rocker Skates

Description

This was the type of ice skate used through the early 1900's. They were followed by the clamp skate, then the key skate, and finally the present-day shoe skate.

There are 3 pairs.

It was necessary to have a good heel and sole on the shoes in order to keep the rocker skates on.
