other info

• Framex made good quality frames in the 1960s and 70s from
  
  their factory near central Birmingham. This pair - named after
  
  a suburb close to their factory - is a solid, masculine frame
  
  with wide library temples in what is known as a nylon supra
  
  frame, with the lenses held into place by a barely visible cord,
  
  somewhat like a fishing line. Nylon supra frames were incredibly
  
  popular over here - as opposed to say a two tone frame favoured
  
  in the US - and were often seen being worn by British politicans
  
  of that era. This pair is a good size too, with generous 150mm
  
  temples. It has been fitted with plano MAR lenses matching the
  
  original's shape, so ready to wear or be easily changed to your
  
  own lenses.
