Bought them decades ago. Have used them when attending rallys with my old BSA. I think I'll clean them up and put them in the cabinet. Does Stadium still exist?  |

I think they've went a good few years ago, or may have even been taken over/absorbed by another company. I used to live near their factory in Caerphilly, South Wales. And I used to get my car tyres done in a unit that was part of the old Gilbern Cars factory in Llantwit Fardre, near Pontypridd. |

they have been well looked after - look like a Mark 7 pair  |

No but I bought them as vintage used here in California last year.....had to replace the strap as it lost its elasticity and went all floppy.
Interesting thing is they are Halcyon - not Stadium

I had a quick look at the Halcyon website as I was not that familier with them and see that one of their brands is Stadium. They only list two items under the Stadium name, both leg shield mirrors, one rectangular and one square. At least the brand is still in existance!
