A very impressive pair of WW1 German Imperial aviation googles by Carl Zeiss. Overall condition is near excellent. Both lenses have graduated lenses which must have been almost unheard of at the time and both have the Carl Zeiss logo etched into them. The lenses are fitted into a hinged metal frame which allows for easy replacement, the frames then sitting on a ventilated firm leather padded surround joined at the bridge by a single leather band. The head strap is particularly impressive with two leather covered side springs and an adjustable leather section with claw buckle and yet another good clear Carl Zeiss logo stamp in the leather. A remarkable pair of early German flying Goggles that would prove impossible to upgrade. For further reading see “Vintage Flying Helmets” by Mick Prodger, page 139.

Although closely resembling WW11 Luftwaffe flying goggles these are in fact a pair of scarce Spanish made Mira Goggles used extensively by the Condor Region and indeed by Russian aircrew fighting on opposite sides during the Spanish Civil War. Easily identified by the chain hinge joining the two lenses the frames are unpainted and cushioned by a single rubber face piece with the name “Mira” raised in the moulding. Overall condition is very good but with some dryness and cracking at the nose area. The strap, which clearly follows that of the Luftwaffe Goggles, retains a good degree of elasticity and the lenses and frames are without damage. For further reading refer to “Vintage Flying Helmets” by Mick Prodger, page 332.
