My mate is demolishing a house, I dropped by and had a nose around. Found an old cream Bakelite dail phone, some post war bicycle lights, tools as you can never have enough good tools and my favourite a pair of Depose welding goggles that flip up in the pic below. They even have cooling louvres in the side sheilds. Wooop woop

Those are mint as bro

Would they work as sunglasses? It's nearly summertime. That would be a great look

Here is a picture of the bike bits and the phone, the tools are downstairs. Yes the goggles are tinted but quite useable in day light. The lenses are held in by wire springs to allow replacement. So you could put clear covers in.
The phone is a pulse dail, but thanks to the wonders of modern geekism you can get a plug in adaptor to use on the touchtone network for $40 US from these guys. They even have speedail ooohhhooo http://www.dialgizmo.com/how_it_works.html

Very cool! How do you know they are not nuclear bomb viewing goggles? Being French and all.
The darkness might be right for skiing/climbing too.

Depose (with accent on the "'e") means deposited, i.e. the design is registered.
