Local rancher, orchardist, businessman, author, an Local rancher, orchardist, businessman, author, and historian Frank Buckland wore these leather cuffs during his ranching days in the early 1900s. They protected his wrists from injuries caused by rope, wire, cattle, and other hazards of the job. The cuffs were both functional and fashionable; they added a touch of cowboy charm to Buckland’s ranch wear. Yee-Haw!
