While cleaning out a storage locker, I found theseVintage & Antique Eyewear Lot - (2) Pairs of Classic Wire-Rim Glasses with Cases (Includes Sandusky, OH Local Provenance & Eagle Eyes Case) in a box. Step back in time with this exceptional vintage eyewear lot featuring two distinct pairs of classic spectacles, each paired with a unique storage case. From the elegant, minimalist rimless structure of the gold-tone pair to the highly detailed engraving on the silver-tone pair, this lot offers a fantastic snapshot of early-to-mid 20th-century optometry. The lot consists of – 1. Rimless Gold-Tone Wire-Frame Spectacles & Historic "Boos" Hard Case • The Glasses: Elegant, classic rimless design featuring lightweight, gold-tone metal wire frames. They feature vintage cable temples (wrap-around ear wires) designed for a secure fit and comfortable, aged nose pads. • The Case: Set in a beautiful, dark blue/black hard clamshell case with a lush velvet-style interior. o The outer case features a faint vintage inscription of the name "Boos". o The interior fabric is proudly stamped in gold lettering with historic local Ohio provenance: "A. R. GRIERSON, M. D. / EYE, EAR, NOSE & THROAT / SANDUSKY, OHIO" 2. Engraved Silver-Tone Round Wire-Frame Spectacles & Brushed Metal Case • The Glasses: Exquisite silver-tone metal frames featuring perfectly round lenses. A standout feature of this pair is the intricate floral/geometric engraved detailing running along the nose bridge and the outer eyewire. Includes classic cable temples and yellowed vintage nose pads. • The Case: Paired with a sleek, vintage-style Eagle Eyes brushed aluminum/metal hard case with a protective black velvet-padded interior. The condition of the items is very good vintage/antique condition with a beautiful, authentic patina that highlights their age. Lenses are intact with minor surface scratches and dust from storage. (Note: These are fitted with vintage prescription lenses and are sold as historical collectibles/display items). Cases: Both cases show typical exterior scuffs, light surface scratches, and wear on the hinge mechanisms, but open and close securely to protect the eyewear.
