Thank you everyone. I am new to this forum and think this is a great site for collectors. I have learned alot of information about the history of roller skating this week lol. All the information has been helpful and I will continue to search for the answer. I have searched french websites as well as many US sites. There was a company in Toledo Ohio who made 3 wheel skates that look very much like mine. They were produced in the early 1900s so I think this is the time table of these skates. I want to put them up for sale but can't until I have some more info their value. Also I very much enjoy reading all the posts and will continue to be part of the forum.

Hi collectors  Has anyone ever seen an antique pair of 3 wheel roller skates? I have a pair that were made by Patins Jack called Le Challengeur.  They were made in France. I contacted the museum of roller skating with pictures. The director informed he had never seen these before and couldn't find out anything to help me. He also asked me if I wanted to donate them to the museum. I have attached some pictures.
