Appraisal on Antique Kings Safety goggle Pat. L-SAFE

[brookecierrafike33]

I need an appraisal on a set of safety goggles that i believe are from the early 1900’s. There is little damage to the actual safety goggles, however, the metal case they belong in has definitely been weathered so to speak.

Wow, very cool! I use modern safety glasses everyday, but I’ve never seen a pair 100 years old! That being said, I would be only guessing at their value, but in my opinion I think your antique safety glasses are worth around $50-100 dollars. I would think someone into Steam Punk antiques would love to own these vintage safety glasses. After I wrote the above, I did a quick search on Antiques Navigator and they are not that uncommon:

I still stand by first gut instinct appraisal, but they obviously sell for over double my estimate.
