Show us your TIES

[Widebrim]

I picked up this lot for about $3 a tie:

Man, what a catch! I especially am drawn to the first one on the left, bottom row. What exactly is below the net? Any labels on these ties?

 

[jamespowers]

What a grab! The top row, fourth from the right looks interesting.

Yeah, that was a decent looking one that contributed to my buying the group.
That third one from the left is a dog though.lol lol lol

I think there is a fish below the net. Kind of narrow looking though.
You sure you don't want the third one from the left? lol lol

Hi Jamespowers

Can you post some pics of the backs? Tie number 5 and 7 top row are my favorites? Tie number 10 top row looks like a pair of socks I own.

Good find and thank you.

Best regards

I will get pictures when I get my hands on them. You certainly know which ones are decent ties out of that lot.

Nice Manhattan Shirt Company tie. In silk no less. Are the others the same brand? Manhattan was a higher end brand. Good finds.

Good to know about Manhattan brand; the other two have no labels or markings, and I doubt they are Manhattan brand because they came from two different stores across Buffalo.

That third one from the left is a dog though.lol lol lol

At least it's one less Christmas gift to purchase, right?

Nice find on the collection.

I may be going down to a Salvation Army tomorrow. What do you think my chances of finding a vintage pre-1970s tie is? How about those colorful Art Deco ties you've been posting? I think a good way to tell of a tie's vintage age is to bring a flexible tape measurer, I might be doing that. No guarantees I'll be getting a tie though.

There is a chance but I never find any at mine if that says anything.
Just look through them and see what you can find.
Good luck.
