In the 1970s wearing eyeglasses was not exactly popular among children. Bruna tried to cheer them up with this poster, a commercial commission from a children’s eyeglass store. With the right instructions, wearing glasses can actually be fun. Each step is depicted with the appropriate facial expression.
