I would wear those to work. Then again, I am of The Louder the Better Club.

I like it! It falls in that category I call "vintage you can wear to work (and get away with it if your company is stuffy about that sort of thing)"
I also like it for the same reason. So many of my vintage ties are quite loud...and while I am completely okay with that, I am always also on teh lookout for the ones that do not scream for attention.
Definitely wearable at work. Nice find.
Nice one. Looks like a late 40s tie. Interesting that from far it looks like a squares pattern but close up you can see the pattern is actually made up of circles.

The top left one is almost too dangerous to wear...
Here's a tie I picked up yesterday. I like it because it's clearly vintage but would be appropriate even for a conservative office setting (since I'm currently jobless, I've been worried a bit that when I do get hired somewhere, much of my wardrobe will be rendered inappropriate).
I'm glad you guys like the tie. It's actually a copy of a knackered old late 1920s tie I had. It is the "Resilient Construction" patented construction pattern. I made a pattern and this is the first one off my production line. I have a store here that has a large stock of vintage tie silks in numerous patterns. I have exemplar ties from the various eras of interest that i'll be making patterns from.
Great looking tie. I like the little cameos of dogs. Very unusual.Ok, a while back I found some Bold Look era ties for 75 cents each at a Goodwill, and I promised HarpPlayerGene that I would post them when able. I don't know where all of them are now (and I think that I sold one or two of them), but here's one from Haband, for all you dog lovers.
I could probably sell it for a good price, but it's a keeper. Really novel.

I agree. Haband did come out with some winners from time to time...
A lot more back then than they do now.:eeek::eusa_doh:
And they weren't made in Pakistan...
