Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, all gifted to the Museum of Ophthalmology, and each framed in its own presentation shadowbox.
Pair of the ”Great Communicator’s” eyeglasses, owned and worn by President Ronald Reagan. Glasses are framed with a lovely letter signed ”Ronald Reagan” from 1 December 1994 on Reagan’s stationery that reads in part, ”It is my pleasure to submit my personal reading glasses for your exhibit…I have lived a very long and full life and been richly blessed with overall good health. While my eyes have always been sharp…these days…my eyes need a little more help and I use these spectacles. Having been a voracious reader since I was a little boy, I simply couldn’t allow this precious gift to be taken from me. / So with my trusty glasses a whole new, vivid world is opened up to me. They bring the pages of my books alive, a lovely softness to the face of my Nancy, and a renewed appreciation for the beauty of a brilliant California day.” Lot also includes a photo of Reagan wearing a similar or the exact pair of eyeglasses, working in his Fox Plaza, Los Angeles office. Personal Optics Mauritius reading glasses with amber colored plastic frames measure 5.375” from endpiece to endpiece. Shadowbox frame measures 29.5” x 21.25” x 3.25” deep, in near fine condition. Sold for $31,250.
Large collection of eyeglasses belonging to U.S. Presidents and world leaders, including a pair belonging to Ronald Reagan, along with Reagan’s autograph letter signed, and accompanying signed envelope. Composed on his Yearling Row ranch stationery, where Reagan lived from 1951-1966, the 40th President writes to Dr. Bagley in full, ”Since I’m now a wearer of Corneal Lens’ this is the best I can do. / These broken parts are all that remain except for one spare pair I keep on hand in addition to my ‘Corneals’. / Best Regards / Ronald Reagan”. Letter is undated but accompanied by original envelope handwritten by Reagan, signed ”R. Reagan / Pacific Palisades Calif.” with a postmark from either 1962 or 1963. Letter is addressed to Dr. Melvin J. Bagley, who assembled this large collection for ”The Famous People’s Eyeglasses Museum”, which he founded. Sold for $15,699.
