Nice quality, early motoring/aviation goggles with long D-shaped glass lenses. Originally retailed by Brown Brothers Ltd., around 1913.

These unusual goggles have chenille lined nickel frames with hinged ends which when opened allows the lenses to be removed. Sprung nose bridge (allows the goggles to be folded). Very good condition (The head strap is intact but has lost it's elasticity). Comes with original box.
