You miss the most important aspect of the monacle. It's chief use was to fall out of his eye when he wanted to punch up the " surprised" look. Nice comic bit.

Monocles were popular pieces of eyewear for middle-aged men right through the nineteen forties. It is perhaps the fact it was associated with Prussian Generals that pushed them out of fad.
