This is a famous frame from Tart Optical out of New York, likely made in the middle to late 1950s or early 1960s. The model is the Tart Arnel and the color is
Blackwood CB. The material is a black-grained zyl
on the brows and temples and the bridge and rims are CB for ''clear bridge'', also called a two-tone frame. The clear zyl is nice and
clear, which means they were well-stored and as a bonus, they'll come complete with their paper frame
envelope. Great keyhole bridge, strong, smooth seven barrel hinges, bright rivets in the famous ''dart'' shape and taper temples, nice and thick. These really are great frames, ready to
go!

Temples are measured their full length, hinge to tip, as though they were straightened out. Why? Because they're adjustable, so measurements to the bend
vary by maker and adjustment. Lens and bridge measurements are from lens edge to lens edge. Hinge to hinge is
measured from screw to screw. All frames are thoroughly inspected before leaving the Attic. I'm thorough about condition so there are no surprises and these glasses are in mint condition. They'll make great everyday glasses or some very cool sunglasses.
