Vintage eyewear collecting has gained popularity, and this book offers an overview of identifying and dating these items. Eyeglass design has evolved to reflect both popular fashion and scientific investigation, with frames and lenses changing to provide more comfortable and practical styles. In the mid-twentieth century, eyeglass makers sought high-profile entertainers to wear their designs, and advertising played a crucial role in promoting their products.
