I suspect that there must be a few vintage aviation buffs here...
I have a pair of Resistal N.A.K. aviator goggles in their original box.
I'm trying to figure out exactly how old they are and learn anything else that I can about them. Web searches are coming up a little short on this particular model. I found an ad from 1918 with a drawing that appears similar and an aviation supply catalog from 1931 that lists replacement lenses for the model N.A.K., but I'd like to narrow it down a little more if I can.
If anyone can offer any insight, it would be appreciated.

Steam punk for Halloween?
I bought mine just like that in the box at a flea market in Ft Wayne for 7.00$. I've since seen two other set between 12-25$. Mine don't have dates and neither did the other sets I saw.
