I see these beautiful old photos of gals wearing glasses that look very similar to today's styles - in other words, small and somewhat attractive. So, why is it that half of my face was covered up during the 1980's (and part of the 70's and most of the 90's) with HUGE glasses? I can't believe now how big they were...you really can't "see" my face! I wish the small trend stayed around longer so folks could have seen what I actually looked like as a teenager!<BR/>Dpastprologuehttp://pastprologue.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795151317189963876.post-72977737018997526332008-07-31T17:50:00.000-07:002008-07-31T17:50:00.000-07:00As I've mentioned before, photographs of children wearing glass for this time period are very difficult to find. But to find the "Before and After" medical photos, I would have thought it impossible!<BR/><BR/>I'm really the only one in my family to have worn glasses as a child. So I have no family glasses photos ?;~(<BR/><BR/>Keep looking Laura, they may be out there.footnoteMavenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16136826114954180827noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1795151317189963876.post-28824484595530547532008-07-31T17:40:00.000-07:002008-07-31T17:40:00.000-07:00I will be checking out the post on Photo Detective - this is such a wonderful idea! Alice looks beautiful in those glasses and it is fascinating to see her before and after.<BR/><BR/>Wish I had a photograph of my gg grandmother (who wore tinted glasses as a young adult) as a child, to see if she wore them then.Laurahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14609618027313982020noreply@blogger.com
