    Question Brand/type of frame from the early 1950's

    Does anyone recognize these? Any specific info would help, or just a generalization of what kind of frames these were.

    Cheers

    Maybe Artcraft, or Shuron?

    Thanks OpticalTroll... also what would you call that style in a generic term? Horn-rimmed was all I could think of but I don't think they are really that...

    edit: LOL "morbid"... *shaking my head*

    Al lot the older stuff I have seen seems like it was embellished after the fact.

    ^Yeah that newspaper photo was from 1953... though those frames could easily be older than that.
