A piece of history not found on any other eyewear anywhere!

Rare Personal Memorabilia: The rare piece of Jackie's personal property is a black wool swing coat that she wore during the cold Boston winter nights. Great American Eyewear's co-founder, Michael R. Lam, bought Jackie's exquisite coat at auction and then patented his new innovation: to embed a piece of personal property worn by a celebrity or President (or President's wife) into Great American Eyewear's first limited edition sunglasses!

Certificate of Authenticity and Ownership: A custom-designed certificate issued by the Company verifying the authenticity of both Presidential relics. The certificate provides ownership documentation regarding the memorabilia and its historical provenance, the edition size, a hand-written individualized limited edition number, the date purchased, and more.

Hand-Signed by Company Founders: Each certificate is personally hand-signed by both founders of Great American Eyewear.

Luxury-Rated by major retail optical shops, Great American Eyewear sunglasses exceed the quality and value of well-known luxury brands selling at $795 and up. Retailers have said that adding the authenticated presidential memorabilia as well as the small limited edition quantities to luxury acetate designer sunglasses have "placed Great American Eyewear on par with limited edition collectible art – making each serial numbered pair a rare, beautiful, and heirloom-quality investment that is sure to increase in value over time."

Innovative Retro Design: This was a major consideration in making this model an upscale artist fashion creation. Rossellini especially engineered Great American Eyewear's Jackie sunglasses to uniquely capture her taste for fashion and her personality to create one of the best and most appealing designs in contemporary styling.

An Elegant Design by Bruno Rossellini: This is what we have heard from purchasers: "They make me look amazing; I put them on and I'm suddenly transported to the fashion houses of Paris, like I'm actually channeling Jackie herself! What a thrill. They fit so well and are so comfortable, too."
