other info

• Although Anglo-American are still going - since
  
  1881 - this pair made a little over a century
  
  later. Looks to be mid-1980's and is typical of
  
  the retro style they always liked to do, this pair
  
  a take on an American 40's frame, complete with
  
  an old fashioned hinge that is pinned with plaques
  
  both front and sides. The name Perimetric refers
  
  to this old shape of frame: this style has a eye shape
  
  which was oval at the top and round underneath.
  
  Anglo-American designs are featured in the
  
  collector's book Eyeglass Retrospective (Schiffer)
  
  and are on display in the BOA Museum, London.
