Interesting history.
The GCVII uses Artemis cushions???
Sub-rail modification is kind of necessary on the early GC's that had Monarch Superspeeds if you ant to maintain correct playing dimensions, correct??

Yes, the Gold Crown VII uses Artemis cushions.

Brunswick tables prior to '78 require sub-rail modification, to make the geometry "correct" for a modern day K55

It's a real mix, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's, and beyond. There are the classic "timeless" and then there are those that are more specific to the taste of the time.

I gravitate toward some of the designs of the 50's and 60's because they are nostalgic, not because I think they are particularly handsome. I collect some like that. Early Gandy, late National, Viking, others.

I tossed out close to $1000 using him. He's not the answer. Find someone that will work with you and stand behind the set up if adjustments or new lens has to be made. My first few were using RayBan shooters frames and a custom lens. Explain what you want achieve. At first I wanted a field of 4-9'..the background was blurry. Years later the next pair were progressive that I got use to. I could adjust to the field, could read, and use them for driving also.

Curious were you not happy with the frame/fit, or the lens, or both?

If the lens, did the rx used 100% come from your optometrist/ophthalmologist? Or did Curran use that as a starting point and then adjusted it?

I’ve only ever had him use the ones direct from my ophthalmologist, which for me, being in my 20s to 40s worked perfect.

Now that I’m late 40’s my eyes are changing for reading, but so far the single vision lens still work for me with the original Rx.
