Magnificent Bastard Eyewear Challenge

Magnificent Bastard Eyewear Challenge
A year ago we had our first-ever MB Eyewear Challenge, and it was so much fun we're doing it again: Another Magnificent Bastard Eyewear Challenge.

How sharp is your eye? Identify these nine bespectacled MBs and tell us what they all have in common. If you win, your eye -- eyes, actually -- will be looking sharper than ever. That's because we're giving you a pair of Allyn Scura frames ($175 value). Or a $100 credit you can apply toward any vintage frames Allyn Scura carries. Play now!

(Top: one of the nine MBs. Bottom: the Allyn Scura Legend frame in honey tortoise.)
