    BRITISH PATHÉ'S STORY
    Before television, people came to movie theatres to watch the news. British Pathé was at the forefront of cinematic journalism, blending information with entertainment to popular effect. Over the course of a century, it documented everything from major armed conflicts and seismic political crises to the curious hobbies and eccentric lives of ordinary people. If it happened, British Pathé filmed it.
    Now considered to be the finest newsreel archive in the world, British Pathé is a treasure trove of 85,000 films unrivalled in their historical and cultural significance.

    We think they should bring back 1950s spectacle designs!

    Some of these designs are more creative/artistic than what is offered today! It would be awesome to find some vintage frames at an antique store, or goodwill; have the old lenses popped out and have your new script put in. Adorable! Or am I just being weirdly over zealous?

      I hit the jackpot when an old large optical store closed and put everything in the hallway. This was in the late 70s. It took years to go through those new empty frames and sunglasses. Buy em if you can find them! I found some real gold wire frames at a yard sale. Happy hunting!

    What they forgot to mention was quite a few of those frames were made out of genuine tortoise shell. I particularly liked the frames at *0:42 and the last pair. Thank goodness they can replicate tortoise shell now! So, they don’t have to rip the shells off of those poor little turtles anymore!

    I use vintage reproductions for reading glasses...but these were AMAZING with the little extra accents. Especially the mother of pearl!!!! 😍 I wish you could find THESE reproductions. Probably not vintage because they were probably make of Bakelite, and early form of plastic that didn’t hold up to well. Shame.

    @tomcarl8021 2 года назад +2

    For all the people commenting on how beautiful these women are, can I just say they are not average, ordinary women off the street being fitted for glasses. They are what are called 'models'. A model is a physically attractive person (male or female), who is paid by an individual or company, to wear or demonstrate the product that individual or company is trying to market and sell.
    So, no, not every woman in that era looked like these women. These women are called 'professional models'.
    I hope that that clears things up.

    I know people are bringing back the style from the 50s especially on the east coast. Does that mean they don't shave like in the 70s? Shaving has become more than an obsession in current times.
