Vintage Union Hardware Metal Roller Skates





The midcentury 1950s vintage Union Hardware adjustable metal roller skates marked "No 5" made in the USA are a true piece of history. The classic design and sturdy construction make them a great addition to any collection, today.  Whether you're an avid collector or simply looking for a unique piece of nostalgia these skates bring back memories for many, including this blog writer as I owned a pair to use on our circular driveway before I began roller skating at Midway Park in Maple Springs, New York wearing skates like the pair shown in photo below with the colorful carrying case.  If these skates could talk, they would certainly have a story to tell.
