1980s RayBan USA
Ray-Ban Clubmaster USA Vintage – Bausch & Lomb Authentic
The "Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban USA" engraved on the temple indicates that the glasses were manufactured before 1999, when the brand was still produced in the United States by Bausch & Lomb (which founded Ray-Ban in 1937). These glasses embody the golden age of American optical know-how:
-
Ray-Ban was originally designed to meet the needs of US Army Air Corps pilots in the 1930s.
-
This frame is similar to the "browline" (or eyebrow glasses) popularized in the 1950s: an acetate top line (here in dark tortoiseshell) set on a gold metal rim. Ray-Ban made this concept official in the 1980s under the name Clubmaster.
-
Although this particular model isn't the one seen in Risky Business , the Clubmaster touch is omnipresent in 1980s and 1990s cinema: politicians, jazz musicians, university campus intellectuals and even trendy directors wore them. In France, they could be spotted in the vinyl bins at "preppy" parties or on the faces of television commentators.
