Aunt Matilda's tales of the first iterations of Aviator Goggles are fantastic! These replicas are magical because she says that they capture the beginning of the era of flying with amazing accuracy. When she traveled to the 1920s the planes did not have covered cockpits, so if Aviator Goggles were not used, with high-altitude temperatures of -70 degrees, one's eyeballs would freeze over! Aunt Matilda revels in the fact that these Aviator Goggles are both stylish and mark an era of great invention!
