Vintage Welshade Absorbative Glass Welshweld Glass Goggles - (Steampunk!)

Description

This ancient pair of goggles has VERY little information on it. However by combining other ads and photos I’ve been able to glean, here it what I have (or haven’t) figured out:
Facts:
- These are cool goggles. Reminiscent of WW2 air combat fighter goggles, these would be perfect for steampunk or cosplay style. (Gnomish inventor anyone? Heck yeah!)
- The case is old... like VERY old. It was extremely hard to read anything but based on other photos I found this is what it should say:
“Welshade Absorptive Glass Welshweld Glass”
“Industrial Eye Protection Services”
“Spectacle Goggles
Welding Goggles
Choppers Goggles
Welding Helmets
Welding Shields”
What’s included:
- Super awesome, VERY old “Type B” welders goggles with adjustable straps
- ancient leather case
- (2x) dark lens welding lenses
Everything is old and has scratches and would need to be cleaned, however these are the coolest goggles I’ve ever seen. No idea when these were originally manufactured, but I suspect the “plastic” is Bakelite (the plastic-ish stuff that existed before plastic went mainstream in the 1950’s)
