There has been a lot of talk about how things have changed in 75 years. One thing that has struck me is the few people wearing spectacles 75 years ago.
The above photograph shows a sole wearer of spectacles in a BBC article VE Day: 'I drove general to WW2 unconditional surrender' . Accompanying Newsreel footage similarly shows an almost complete absence of Specs compared with today.
Take a look at the congregation in Dechrau Canu Dechrau Canmol to see the difference.
You have to laugh.
