Retro Eyewear
Monday, November 1, 2010 CityandDale 
Do you see what we see? Thick, nerdy, perfectly-retro frames, that’s what; available at eye-bar optical in Sherwood Park.
These covetable frames of decades past are part of the Victory Collection, a ‘revived’ eyewear line. Originally founded in 1941 by Vincent J Salierno, Victory Optical was a leader in eyewear design and manufacturing until the 1970s. Now, his grandchildren are bringing retro back. The newly-made Victory Collection re-introduces the most popular frames from the family’s archives of the 40s, 50s, 60s and 70s. The mark of authenticity stretches further by adhering to old-school colours and materials.
Nothing says gentleman like these frames. Nothing says gorgeous lady like the Miss Exec or Vicki frames.
With frame prices starting at only $179, you’ll leave eye-bar optical seeing straight.
