Vintage Stratton Brand Sunglasses 1950s Catalogue Full Colour
This trade catalogue dates to c.1958 because the company used the name Laughton & Sons Ltd. on the back cover.
Meanwhile the listing shown below in the April 26 1958 edition of The Chemist And Druggist describes the makers as JARRETT RAINSFORD & LAUGHTON LTD., WARSTOCK ROAD, BIRMINGHAM 14.
Stratton Compacts: Why Are Many Of The 1930s, 1940s And 1950s Models So Rare?
Without doubt Stratton were the most successful brand of British powder compact. The quality of their enamel was clearly superior to the other British brands at the time. Vintage Stratton accessories are highly collectible today and many have proved to be a good investment.
With thanks to the material written by Juliette Edwards in her book The Stratton Identification Key, collectors can say for certain what model is rare, uncommon & common. Coupled with known years of availability it is possible to build a big picture of exactly how rare an item is.
