We don’t need no stinkin’ Opthamologists, we got the ‘Ocularscope’
~ The American Pictorial Home Book, or Housekeeper’s Encyclopedia, by Mrs. Harriet Almaria Baker Suddoth, 1883
Note: I believe the writer is referring to a style of glasses known as pince-nez (eyeglasses clipped to the nose by a spring) like the ones being worn by Anton Chekov, below.
Yesterday some fanciful new frames for my eyeglasses arrived in the mail. There may be a handful of little stars lining the edges.
