Described in 1952 as "a handsomme masculine successor to the famous AO Ful-Vue", Liner was famously worn by Bob Dylan. AO introduced Liner as "Design for the modern man : Here's a man who believes in modern design, up-to-date utility and thrifty economy. It is not at all surprising that he likes the AO Liner Ful-Vue. For the modern, square Ful-Vue eyeshape and the wide streamlined temples are commanding, authoritative, fashionable... they reflect his personality. He like the rugged construction, the functional design. He appriciates the strength of exclusive AO double-braced bridge and the wide rigid bar-type temples that help so much to preserve the perfection of his Rx. The Liner carries the mak of quality."
