Object Name:
Eyeglasses
Title:
Eyeglasses from Telephone Hill
Description:
Wire rimmed glasses with no temples, but it rested on the nose. There is a loop on the bottom right of the right side, presumably for a chain. The nose rest is bent out of shape and it is hard to tell what the original shape was. Also the left lens does not fit into the wire rim. Both nose prongs are very corroded and there is no material left from the nose pads that would have been on top of these prongs. Probably reading glasses.
Notes:
Found on Telephone Hill. Jim Geraghty wonders if the lenses are mica?
