Lot 206: A Pair of Mid-20th Century Record Metal Sash Clamps

A pair of heavy-duty sash clamps, each featuring a T-section bar with a series of pre-drilled adjustment holes along the length. The clamps are constructed from rolled metal bars with cast metal fixed heads and sliding jaws. Each clamp is fitted with a threaded screw mechanism operated by a tommy-bar handle. The sliding jaws are designed to be secured via a pin through the adjustment holes on the bar. The letters RECORD are embossed in capital letters on the cast metal sliding jaws and the fixed heads. One clamp retains a short length of metal chain and a red cord attached to the sliding jaw. Remnants of a black painted finish are visible on the bars. No other maker’s marks, signatures, or labels are visible on the items.
