Advertisement aimed at practitioners promoting an American lens company, promoting 'Orcolite' double full segment bifocal lenses without jump, excerpted from an issue of an American optical journal. Printed in black and white on one page only, illustrated with a photograph of a male model wearing a suit and spectacles, surrounded by six sketch drawings representing 'pain in the neck' occupations as they would have appeared in the early twentieth century: optician, artist, pilot, photographer, shopkeeper and blacksmiths.
