Winslow skates


Samuel Winslow started his ice skate company in Worcester, Mass in 1857, in the 1880s, he added roller skates to the product line, both regular and inline styles. By the late 1800s, the company was the largest manufacturer of skates in the USA as ice and roller rinks became common forms of entertainment.
The Winslow company seems to have disappeared after being hit with a tax bill and penalties in 1931.
