Ray-Ban 12k GF Bullet Hole Shooter Sunglasses

1 Early B&L Ray-Ban 12k Gold Filled Shooter sunglasses, c early 1970s, are extraordinarily rare and feature the bullet hole design and curved wire outdoorsman ear stems. This is such a comfortable design that they've always been in demand, but the visual acuity you can get with these vintage B&L shooter lenses is really what has sustained demand and high prices for 50 years. These are one of the most famous of all vintage Ray-Bans, and the center bullet hole design is functional in positioning the frame perfectly on your face not to mention that it looks cool! These early Ray-Ban shooters are marked Ray-Ban B& L 1/10 12K GF impressed in the metal on the nose bridge, and they also feature the top pearlized General bar that reflect the top of the line production. The teardrop shaped B&L lens are remarkable and early examples of the best of Bausch & Lomb optical lens technology, measuring approximately 2.5" x 2.0" in a frame measuring 5.25" temple to temple. These 12k gold filled shooter sunglasses are c late 1960s - early 1970s, and they pre-date the use of the inscribed Ray-Ban in script on the lens not begun until later in the 1970s. Rare.
