A pair of wire-rimmed glasses with oval lenses, of the variety seen frequently in period photographs - especially of older soldiers/gentlemen. The lenses are in excellent condition and the wire rims (which appear to be of light brass) are slightly rusted, consistent with age. They are encased in a 6 1/2" x 1 1/2" heavy cardstock case covered with leatherette. The case is manufacturer identified to Smith & Leavitt/ Gardner, Mass. These are ideal for display with letters or newspapers
