Does anyone know where I could buy a pair of Roger McGuinn glasses? They seem to be as hard to find as authentic Buddy Holly Fiosa glasses.

Well, these don't have colored lenses, but they're cheap:

These aren't quite the same shape, but are colored, also cheap:

Here's some more, in multiple colors. Not quite as square as McGuinn's though:

Not sunglasses, but definitely grannies.

That Hippie Shop has some cool stuff --- such Capitalists !!!
(My daughter enjoys Yellow Submarine artifacts -- so this Hippie Shop has lots of sew-on patches, etc.)

If they don't need to be prescription, that'll help.

Thanx for all the help! I used to see these glasses for sale back as late as the mid '70s. Funny that they're so scarce now. I may be able to make the clear lens "Granny" ones work if I can find something blue to replace the lenses with!

You can go to any type of eye wear store and they can dye it for you.

Thats what its called, To tint you place your lenses into a dye just the same as tie dyeing.

Thanks Henry! I'll give one of the glasses places a call. Can they dye both glass and plastic lenses?

I'm surprised these aren't easier to find.

I'd love some if these too. Roger had the coolest glasses ever!

I'm looking for some quality frames in this style for my regular glasses.

I saw some for sale in Pensacola, Fl. years ago, but didn't buy a pair.
