# Vintage Bausch & Lomb Ray-Ban \"Rx Demonstrator\" Lens Sample Kit with Original PouchUp for sale/sale is an exceptionally rare, mid-century Bausch & Lomb (B&L) Ray-Ban \"Rx Demonstrator\" diagnostic and sales display lot. Distributed exclusively to optometry practices and opticians in the 1950s/1960s, these kits allowed patients to preview genuine B&L prescription glass sunglass tints before ordering. These are from my family’s shop. Finding a multi-piece grouping complete with the original factory-branded vinyl protective sleeve is incredibly difficult, making this a premier addition to any vintage eyewear, advertising, or medical history collection.### What is Included in this Lot:
* **(1) Original Branded Sleeve:** Cream vinyl pouch featuring the vintage \"Ray-Ban Sun Lenses Rx Demonstrator\" stylized starburst graphic logo.
* **(3) Handheld Paddle Viewers:** Ivory plastic multi-lens selectors featuring grouped glass lens samples including the legendary G-15 (neutral gray/green), G-31, and other historical B&L tint iterations.
* **(3) Lorgnette Frame Selectors:** Glasses-shaped ivory plastic face-front viewers marked with specific vintage lens configurations (including \"Ray-Ban G-15\" and \"Ray-Ban No. 2\").### Condition Report:
* **Glass Lenses:** The original glass samples remain securely seated in their plastic housings. They show good clarity and a bit of dust.
* **Plastic Housings/Paddles:** The ivory-toned plastic frames are structurally sound with no cracks, heavy chips, or melting. The stamped gold/black brand markings and lens IDs (\"G-15\", \"G-31\", etc.) remain clear and highly legible.
* **Vinyl Pouch:** The central protective pouch remains pliable with clean edges and crisp typography. Minor superficial discoloration from age is present as expected.*Please review the high-resolution photographs carefully to assess the precise cosmetic condition of this lot.*### Shipping & Handling:
Item will be meticulously packaged with bubble wrap and shipped in a sturdy box to ensure the vintage glass lenses and plastic housings arrive in perfect condition. Global Shipping is available via the International Shipping Program.
