Show us your TIES

Who was Galét? An artist of note? A made-up name to sell ties?
Not made up. lol lol He was an illustrator and artist from the period. (Widebrim can correct me if I am leaving anything out. :p) Not exactly a household name now but he had his moment in the sun then and took advantage of it. His ties were not cheap and the whole Beverly Hills thing certainly related to cost. :p
 
This needs to be seen again:p

GIVE ME A WILD TIE, BROTHER!


Some men long
For the soothing touch
Of lavender, cream or mauve.
But the ties I wear
Must possess the glare
Of a red-hot kitchen stove.

The books I read
And the life I lead
Are sensible, sane and mild;
I just hate spats,
I wear calm hats,
But I want my neckties WILD!

Give me a wild tie, brother --
One with a cosmic urge;
A tie that will swear,
And rip and tear,
When it sees my old blue serge.

Some folks say
that a man's cravat
Should only be seen, not heard;
But I want a tie
That will make men cry,
And render their vision blurred!

I yearn, I long,
For a tie so strong
It will take two men to tie it.
If such there be,
Show it to me --
Whatever the price, I'll buy it!

Give me a wild tie, brother,
One with lots of sins;
A tie that will blaze
In a hectic haze,
Down where the vest begins.

Believe me, Damian, James Powers has a TON of ties; just ask his wife...Also, if you're looking for a vintage yellow tie, let me know.

I like to believe I have a ton as well but maybe I'm afraid not as many as Mr. Powers.

What do you got on the yellow necktie department. I'm looking for 30s-early 40s.
