Ray-Ban White Wayfarer Sunglasses
Vintage Ray-Ban white Wayfarer sunglasses were along with red one of the few color variations done by Bausch & Lomb for the original Wayfarer 50 [] 22 and 50 [] 24 sizes and thus much harder to find than black and tortoise shell. There are few equals to the look of original white Wayfarers with B&L G-15 lenses, the sunglasses you see movie and TV stars such as Audrey Hepburn wearing during the 1960s and 1970s. You'll find only the elongated chrome inserts on the front frame and ear stems of these original Wayfarers, in contrast to the Ray-Ban logo in raised metal relief you find on the stems in later models. The unisex frame measures approximately 5.675" temple to temple, and the lenses measure approximately 1.875" x 1.5" at the widest points with both lenses laser etched BL near the hinges. The inside of one stem is impressed B&L Ray-Ban USA while the inside of the other stem is impressed Wayfarer, and in keeping with the original production the frame is also impressed B&L 50 24 above the rear of the right lens. This indicates that the nose bridge on these Wayfarers is 2mm wider at the nose bridge than Wayfarer 50 [] 22 sunglasses but with identically sized 50mm lenses; the size difference is quite small but these 50 [] 24 Wayfarers might be a better fit for wider faces while slimmer faces may prefer white Ray-Ban Wayfarer 50 [] 22 sunglasses. This color and this size of the original Wayfarers is quite difficult to find, part of a great collection of the finest vintage Ray-Bans owned by a well known European TV and movie industry figure and long time customer of the Vintage Sunglasses Shop.
