I'm looking for a pair of New Wave wraparound shades online. You know the kind: thin, reminiscent of Devo and the blind guy from Star Trek. I've been looking everywhere for these things online, but I can't seem to find them. Can anyone help me with this?

Felix Havoc and I have talked about having some of these glasses made up, but we can't find a pair to make the prototype mold from.

I still have my pair, purchased in 1979 from Trash & Vaudeville in NYC, so you know they're authentic. [:)] Any way I can post a pic of them in here so we can see if they match what you're looking for?

The scan doesn't seem to be working, it's coming out too dark and blurry. I'll have to try getting a real pic of them. While I was looking at them, they did seem to remind me of the ones that Ray Davies of the Kinks wore back in his new wave stage ("Giv
