I hit the vintage tie jackpot yesterday!

[Rooster]

Please post any opinions or comments, they are most welcome. I believe these first ones are from the 30's. They are 46" long and 3 1/4" wide. Kind of a mercurised cotton feel to them. Unlabeled.
I ought to add that many of these ties still had cardboard inside of them and are in minty condition.

Wow, nice! Love those patterns.

I'm not sure what to make of these, I'm guessing the mid fifties. 50" long and 3" wide. They're labeled "Pure Silk Emboidered".
The one on the right is 54" long and 3 1/2" wide. It's labeled "Silk Embroidered Bark". Kind of a raw silk look to it.

 

[Rooster]

A couple more. The one on the right is wool and 52" by 3" "Botany" brand.
The other is 52" by 3 1/4" " Selected Fabrics" resilient construction

More oldies. on the left...52" by 3 1/2" "ALL SILK". In the middle a hand painted Pilgrim. 52" by 3 1/4". On the right: 53" by 3 1/4"

I don't know what to make of these...53" by 3 1/4" . Self tying tie....So far they havn't done anything but just lay there, but I'm keeping an eye on them....

 

[Rooster]

I'm thinking this may be an ascot. 58" by 7" and has a "manly" theme of watches and chains. So I'm thinking ascot......any opinion?

Goodness, you hit the jackpot. Great ties. I like the handpainted Pilgrim.

 

[imoldfashioned]

I really like the one on the left and the ones with the autumn leaves in the picture under the original post of this too. They're all great though!

 

[Dinerman]

Wow- great ties! Where'd you stumble upon these?

Rooster,

Where did you find this trove? :eusa_clap

I'm seriously covetous of the hand-painted Pilgrim.

Well Done!

Al the Canucks on the Lounge(those who are still not hiding after their loss to the Aussies in the Rugby World Cup ) might appreciate them...

That is sweeeettt!!!

Very nice. They look like they might have been hidden in the back room of an old men's clothing store. I've seen two and three different color schemes of a same tie design, but never four!

Great score. These are a sharp style and will go nicely with the modern slimmer cut suits we are seeing in retail stores.

If you are looking to sell the salmon colored one, keep me in mind.

It appears to me by what the label says that they were made in Clinton. I'm front eastern Iowa and would never have thought there had been a necktie manufacturer there. But then I'm from Ottumwa which in the early 20th century had been one of the country's leading cigar manufacturing cities.
