Ray-Ban L0226 Caravan Sunglasses
1 Vintage Ray-Ban L0226 Caravan sunglasses feature 52mm Bausch & Lomb G-15 lenses, the smaller of the 2 Caravans, and are one of the icons of modern sunglasses design. When introduced, the Caravan was a shape the world had never seen before coupled with the anti-glare mineral glass lenses B&L originally developed for the US military. The unisex Ray-Ban L0226 Caravan frame measures approximately 5.0" temple to temple, and the 52mm G-15 lenses measure approximately 2.0" x 1.675" at the widest points with right lens laser etched Ray-Ban and both lenses laser etched BL near the hinges. The top of the nose bridge is impressed B&L Ray-Ban USA while the bottom of the bridge is impressed B&L Ray-Ban 52 [] 16 in the gold plating and on some production one ear pad is impressed L0226 VVAS, part of a great collection of fine vintage Ray-Bans from Atlanta, GA.

3 Vintage Ray-Ban 55mm Caravan sunglasses were produced in the transitional period in the approximately 9 months following Luxottica's acquisition of the Ray-Ban brand from Bausch & Lomb c 1998-1999. Luxottica produced this slightly larger 55mm version of the iconic Caravan, filling what they felt was a market niche between Bausch & Lomb's 52mm Caravans here and the much larger 58mm Caravans. Otherwise identical in shape and appearance, the bottom of the nose bridge of the frame is impressed Ray-Ban 55 [] 15 and the lenses laser etched RB versus the prior BL.
