Chicago
Vintage Roller Skates - Flying Scout No. 101
Adjustable Steel Construction, Leather Straps


These vintage Chicago "Flying Scout" No. 101 roller skates are a classic example of mid-century sidewalk skates. The Chicago Roller Skate Company was a prominent manufacturer known for durable steel construction and ball-bearing wheels. The "CHICAGO" brand name and patent number 1,910,193 are clearly stamped into the metal footplates, matching the included original retail box.


• Adjustable length steel base plates designed to fit varied shoe sizes
• Double tread steel wheels with ball bearing construction
• Original leather ankle straps with metal prong buckles
• Includes original retail box featuring period-accurate graphic illustrations


Condition: Fair vintage condition. The metal frames and wheels show significant surface oxidation and light rust consistent with age. Leather straps are aged and stiff but remain attached. The wheels spin but show surface wear. The original box is in poor condition with heavy tearing, crushing, and loss of structural integrity. This item has not been tested and is sold with no guarantees.
