A genuine World War II-era U.S. military goggle accessory set for the Polaroid N-2 All Purpose / M-1944 goggles.
The original reinforced cardboard box is clearly marked:
Stock No. 37-G-3050
Goggle, N-2 (All Purpose)
Quantity 1
Included are the original instruction sheet plus two interchangeable plastic lenses:
-
Red lens for dark adaptation
-
Clear / neutral lens for general use
The instruction sheet identifies the lens stock numbers as 37-L-155-55 and 37-L-155-60 and shows how the lenses fit into the goggle frame.
The N-2 / M-1944 goggles were produced by Polaroid Corporation during WWII and were used by U.S. military personnel, including Air Force and Navy users. Collector references date this model to approximately 1944–45.

Condition
Pre-owned military surplus condition with substantial age-related wear.
The box has edge wear, scuffs and surface loss. The instruction sheet is aged, creased and worn. Both lenses show visible age, residue, marks and deterioration around portions of the edges.
Because of their age and condition, I would sell these strictly as historical collectibles/display pieces, not as protective eyewear.
