other info

• The Stateside was first launched in 1975
  
  (the pair on the left in the same lenses) and it
  
  was so successful they made it for many years
  
  and in many versions. This pair was developed
  
  for their 1976 Olympics Collection, their two most
  
  popular pairs, Stateside and Vagabond were given
  
  multi-layer laminates in brilliant colours and they
  
  also included the "universally popular black" within
  
  the range. The Olympics logo range rare to find
  
  as it was replaced by the Ray-Ban logo after Montreal,
  
  ie. from 1977. This pair in great condition, looks
  
  hardly worn. The lenses are the paler G31 (grey
  
  base) given a coating of the alloy inconel to
  
  provide the full mirror.
