Can any one help?:)
Today I purchased a wonderful item that I know very little about and I was wondering if you men could help me. (I actually squealed when I saw it!)
To start, it’s a small gift box with a picture of a very young and handsome looking Jack Buchanan on it and it’s signed (printed), yours-----?------- (I haven't quite worked out what the second word is yet!:p) Jack Buchanan (Date 1930’s?) and inside was a navy and white silk tie with a matching hankie. The only marking on the tie is an embroidered label saying exactly the same thing as on the box cover!
Have any of you come across these sets?
Where did you buy them? Why were they produced and who by? Etc….
Sorry for all the questions but I am completely baffled and I wanna know more!!!
I’ll try and get a picture of it if that would help!

I've have a few matching sets. Do post a pic or two. Most people despise matching sets and see them as the ultimate in un-imaginative dressing but I like 'em.

I like them as well. I would love to see pictures too.
Now matching shirt and tie sets---that is another story. :eusa_doh:

Good to know there is someone else who likes the matching set.

Matching shirt and tie sets...now we are treading on scary territory. :)
I have a picture somewhere of a guy wearing a matching shirt and tie and he looks good in it!

I like the matching sets too- all rather chipper if you ask me. But then I like things that match generally, though you wouldn’t think so to look at me sometimes!

Can you make out what the second word is- because I sure don’t have a clue what it is.

The tie is nicely lined and I’m pretty sure it was sent from the gods:eek:, as it doesn’t have any holes- unlike most, in my small collection.

Very nice. It says, "Yours sincerely." And I like matching sets.

....Hi I’m Tickety Boo Tupney and I also like matching sets…..
I only have two, but I might as well get help before it spirals out of control!

Thanks Widebrim, I had originally thought it said ‘Yours Sincerely’ but it just didn't look right- Jack Buchanan, obviously had bad handwriting. Can’t stop humming the tunes from Bandwagon now!

Feraud, I especially like the 'Boys Smart Set' and the movie star endorsed one- very natty!

I have to tell you all...aside from "Show Us Your Purchases" over in the Powder Room, the Gents tie posts are my favorite! I am love-love-loving the set that is "endorsed by movie stars". Why, I'll bet I could even choke down brussel sprouts if the bag said "endorsed by movie stars"! ;) Kidding aside, really beautiful sets you guys!
 
Well, now. That is a very interesting piece of very early celeb marketing. Good stuff. Polka dots are one of my favourite motifs.

Yes certainly your's sincerely. Writing's not too bad really.
