Once I find out, i'm getting some It's called a pince-nez. Very common in the Victorian era. They stay in place via a clip on the nose. Do a search for "pince nez" and you can find any number of places that sell them.

I rather like the rimless glasses, than the black rimmed ones I think that they are the same as Morpheus . . . only their not sun glasses.

In the "Klaus Collar" thread,I was just looking at the trailer for the 60th time and i saw a little string/chain thing that is connected to the glasses and i think that may have something to do with why the left side of his collar is always tucked in Here's a page about Teddy Roosevelt's glasses, that are very similar in design and function to Klaus's... www.eyeglasseswarehouse.com/famoustr.htmlThere's even a Sherlock Holmes book cover that illustrates it...

Those glasses? They look funny. How can they not have the ear pieces? Wouldn't they fall off alot?

I think they look nice and classy!
Tyler Quagmire: The glasses stay on with a clip at the nose so they dont fall off all the time. I suppose they would be more conveniant than the ordinary glasses, in terms of carrying them around in a pocket and whatnot.

Quick, fetch me some smelling salts... or possibly Brandy, that's more canon, anyway. P: What a weirdo. I agree with OlafsAssociate...

Yay!!! I dont wear glasses, but if I did, I would try and get that kind. I would only need glasses for reading/drawing, anyways, because my eyesight is alright to see.
I wonder, though. I should get my eyes checked. Its been...a looooooong time.

Im willing to bet theyre pricey.
Im the kinda person who doesnt like to ask people for stuff, and I dont like people messing around with me in any way. It annoys me. So when I want something, I usually keep it to myself. unless, of course, its something I really really want, like a new ASoUE book or something.
