Rodenstock sunglasses





Today when I was in my local recycling center running some other business I suddenly noticed these glasses in the corner. They are vintage Rodenstock sunglasses made in the 70's in West-Germany. 130 pairs made ( this is numer 12 ). Rodenstock was founded in 1877, in Munich. " The competence for both ophthalmic lenses as well as for frames makes Rodenstock into a unique brand in ophthalmic optics because it can offer spectacles wearers the complete ”spectacles” system from a single source. " As you noticed there are only the frames left, but Im definitely buying some lenses to it in the future. Now, the coolest thing in these glasses imo is the colour. There are actually 3 different colours on the frames and much tiny details. Its a pity that my camera can't store all these details into the photo :S Maybe I make some more pics when I get a new camera. Cool thing was that I got them totally free. The shop keeper said these glasses have laid in the corner for ages.
