Authentic Replica Frames for Civil War & Historical Enthusiasts!
Battlefield McAllister eyeglasses were carefully created for historical enthusiasts such as Civil War or colonial reenactors. In fact, the prop master for the broadway musical Hamilton ordered five Battlefield eye frames for the touring company!
These durable steel alloy metal frames mimic the look of the rounded oval eyewear shape of the 18th and 19th centuries. The 42 mm eye size easily fits a wide as well as a slender face. The bridge rests comfortably upon the nose via the saddle bridge commonly used during the era. The arms on the McAllisters are also quite unique: straight with a slight curve, inward toward the head, at the ends. This completes the antique look while also providing great comfort.
