's message, "Re: Buddy's glasses (frames)" on Fri July 03, 2009 12:07:11
For a few years I wore glass frames identical to Buddy’s last set. I saw them first in a window display in Detroit in 1959 and bought them right away. Cost me $18.00 US at the time. I did purchase a second set after the first developed crack. I still have the second set although one lens is gone. I figure that if I ever get to go to a Buddy gathering I’ll get new lenses and have the frames buffed up like new before I go. I’ve only ever seen two other people wearing them, both in the 60's; Fidel Castro and a back room NYC Democrat with the first Carmine. I’ll but a photo of mine up on my Flickr site this weekend if there is any interest
