Leah 110



These antique celluloid glasses were a find in a Dublin bric à brac shop, some fifteen years ago. I brought them over to Ireland with James Joyce in mind. The famous writer was longsighted and several photos from the 1930's show him wearing exactly the same glasses as Leah. The friendly B&B where I was staying in Bray was named "Ulysses" by their previous owners who were relatives of James Joyce. But to be honest, I also brought the glasses to Ireland with Leah in mind.

"Would you make a pass at me, Jack, if I had to wear these glasses in real life?"
Another example of marvelous posing by Leah in celluloid glasses made some 75 years ago.
