Show us your TIES

If it's in excellent condition (and if your auction's placement, title and description mimic those of the $102.50 Oviatt tie auction), then IMO you could get over $50 for it. Not $100, I reckon, since vintage thin '50s ties don't fetch as much cash on eBay as the wider '40s ties do.

It is in excellent condition, and I would imagine that $50 is in the ballpark...

I'd say that you should put it up on eBay as soon as possible, preferably while the other tie is still at auction.

Another one of those nice 1950s woollen ties that keep turning up in the charity shops around here. Perfect for wearing with a tweed jacket.

Nice. I love the woven ties!

I was in to about the $175 mark. This one surprised me.

310 dollars??!! Someone has way too much money on his hands...

Yeah I can't believe it...I'd pay that much for a lot MAYBE but not one tie in particular.

Yet I've seen certain Dali ties fetch that price.

More money than sense?

Maybe. Then again, 1940s-early '50s 'science fiction' ties always sell for high prices, and this particular one seems to be rarer than any Dali tie.

In these financial times, I'd rather have the money. I am sure we both have over 1,000 ties and have never been able to eat one.

It certainly is cooler looking than most of the Dali ties I've seen.

So you bought it then?

Here's my Hollyvogue Westerner I mentioned a little bit ago. I think it's a saddle and some spurs...

With your credit card...You want to buy it?

[Dinerman]

Early '50s?

 

[Thibideaux]

Nice outfit you put together there, Dinerman. It's kinda weird how I dig that tie but know full well I likely wouldn't have bought it myself. Not for lack of liking it, but for lack of inspiration on what to wear it with. It's a bit difficult for me to move out of my Rat Pack-esque tie comfort zone:

Also, really digging the collar on that shirt you've got there. Been looking for a few like it myself for a while now.
