Imperial Japanese Army/Navy flying goggles

SOLD

Code: G25179



Imperial Japanese flying goggles.  Dark brown lacquered aluminium frames stitched to chocolate coloured brown padded velvet cushions.  Fitted with curved elliptical clear glass lenses and wide adjustable elasticated strap.  This appears to be a mid-war period pair with quality leather fittings and glass lenses.  Later goggles used cheaper metals and plastics. The frames are in excellent condition bar light paint chips but have no manufacturer's marks.  The velvet padding is equally good and has a fabric nosepiece sewn in place.  Excellent lenses and the strap is clean, retains good colour and has some elasticity remaining.   A very good '+' to excellent pair of these high quality goggles.  Stock code G25179.
