Vintage Rayban Help Needed!

Hi Everyone! I am a new member who just subscribed to get a little help.

I am usually an Oakley collector - but was helping my 84 yr old dad clean out his desk and ran across this old pair of RayBan Wayfarers.

They look to be from the 50's or 60's from what little I can find on them on this forum. They are stamped above the right lens 5022 and have only the Bausch and Lomb engraving on the inside of the earpieces. They do not say the name Rayban anywhere, and appear to have the original lenses (which are in very good shape!)

The size of the stems is given in inches: 4 3/4 to 51/2.

Questions:

1. Approximate age?
2. What do you look at to determine age on this model?
3. What value range do they fall within?
4. Is Ebay the best place to sell these?

Thanks for any help you can give!

Tom
