Looks like there are fans of both sunglasses here.I'm thrilled you like the collection. I've never seen them grouped this way before. Your kind words sure were nice. Thank you very much!! :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Even though I thought about it) I didn't include the pair of ray bans that was used on the set with the non reflective flat lenses, as this was the collection of what the character SONNY CROCKETT wore on MIAMI VICE. http://www.miamiviceonline.com/showthread.php?2810-DJ-s-RARE-SCREEN-WORN-RAYBANS!I'm happy that this is getting a great response!

COOPER&BURNETT Posted April 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Today, I purchased an Acrylic, Clear Plexiglas store display made for selling sunglasses in department stores. It holds 24 sunglasses, and it's a locking case with keys. This will be a nice way for me to display all my sunglasses, protect it, keep dust off of it, and will keep visitor hands off when visiting here at "VICELAND".I'll post pictures of it later. This was a great investment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eXistenZ Posted April 13, 2012 Report Share Posted April 13, 2012 Yeah' date=' you of all people know that these are way, WAY expensive, as your a collector too.[/quote']Haha, yeah, sometimes it hurts in my small students wallet. :DThe Persol 69218 is really pricey (just like the TR4), I'm still trying to get one cheap. You even own a pair with case and tag, that is really, really cool. :)Now that you've a complete collection of Sonny's sunglases, you might want to start collecting Tubbs shades.

[/quote']Well, Tubbs did wear the same Carreras Sonny wore in early season 1 episodes, and Tubbs wore Crockett's Persols for one scene in VIKING BIKERS FROM HELL. So, in a way, I'm already collecting Tubbs' sunglasses. :clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I do suppose your correct aussifan, there IS a MIAMI VICE museum, and I am the curator. I only wish I could get my hands on even more MIAMI VICE items from the show. I do preserve, and protect them. I actually take this seriously. I need more items actually from the show.Sleep well my friend, this place, "VICELAND" the MIAMI VICE museum, does in fact, exist!Thankfully, because it's a private museum, I'm making it available online here for you, and everyone in the world to "visit" VICELAND in thier own homes.Your post made me happy!

I don't think there is another person that has the passion or resources to collect this stuff that you do. Thanks for sharing all your stuff with us! This site wouldn't be the same without your continued support. :clap:As a side note, I just realized two things. One is that Sonny didn't wear Oakley sunglasses and two is that I just had some yo-yo in Texas swipe my Discover card number and make a fraudulent purchase from Oakley for $1200.00 worth of products! Unfortunately he wasn't too smart about it as the Arlington TX police nabbed him and contacted me to fill out an affidavit to prosecute him. And to all you Leona fans out there, that's prosecute, not persecute! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
