other info

• The Carrera brand, born in Traun, Austria
  
  in 1953, took its name after the legendary
  
  Mexican automobile race, the Carrera Pan-
  
  American. At some point they merged with
  
  German company Optyl and despite special-
  
  ising in sports eyewear, throughout the 70's
  
  and 1980's made many of the top brands
  
  under licence, including Christian Dior,
  
  Playboy and Paloma Picasso. This pair about
  
  20 years old or so, distinctive by the gold
  
  inner rims and triangular slotted bridge.
  
  Lenses contrast nicely with the frame and
  
  it is nice to find it unworn, although the lenses
  
  have been marked down due to some storage
  
  marks. UV protection is maximum, 99% at
  
  400nm.
