Big glasses, you can tell it was the 80's!

Those big oversized glasses were necessary for those of bad sight. The smaller sleeker glasses are only possible for those needed stronger prescriptions in the last ten years.

However, I still keep my big ones because the little ones don't cover the whole sight area. Its funny, you couldn't get little sized glasses for cheap only five years ago and last month I had to pay an additional $20US to have lenses made for my big frames.

I think Albert looks better in bigger frames than he's wearing now, but not as big as in that photo!

Not only were those big lens glasses necessary for those of us with bad eyesight in the 80's -- they were in STYLE! Even those folks who did not need the major corrections liked to wear them. Think Elton John & Sally Jessie.

Tell me about it. His mom used glasses too, but she always hid them for vanity:)

Grace eventually got to the point where she didn't care if she was photographed in them or not. This is one of my favorites of hers

Caroline seems to be getting there. I've seen three different events since January where she was snapped wearing half or complete glasses.

I've been wearing glasses since 1968 and never heard of such a thing it was the style back then. Albert had few different types during college and contacts.

We have been having a discussion here, what is the color of Prince Albert's eyes; blue or light brown?

I was under the impression they were blue, like Princess Grace's eyes.

They seem to have a blue-gray-green swirl as they look different in different lightings. Or perhaps some of the magazines are Photoshopping.

He's not wearing socks. I thought I was the only one who could get away with that.

When were these taken, they are nice (though they could be better if someone would lose a little of his belly).

Does anyone have the full series he did within the last two years (not sure if before or after Rainier died) where Albert is wearing a black shirt and posing in the courtyard? Some are on the steps, some are close-ups with his hands under his chin.
They are the most attractive I have seen of Albert...probably since the 'cowboy' ones above. Though the one where he has a moustache (it was part of an auction) is a favourite too.

Just to note, the black shirt is not that above. Its long sleeved and the series was shot in black and white.

I can't find right now the rest of the photos that were posted but I saved them at the time on my computer along with the interview, I'll look for later if you want.
