Saw this today. Red skinny tie. Didn't buy it, but what the heck is that supposed to be sewn onto the front? And what is arnel miracle fibre?

I Have as many as maybe 300. but none are yellow!

300? That is a starter set. :p I have a few yellows but in the 30s ties there just aren't that many of them. There are far more blues and browns---even more greens.

Yup, yellows are hard to find, especially in plain colours. So hard that you'll struggle to find a collector who'll sell you one.;) Discounting painted and patterned ties, I have maybe 3 yellow 30s ties in various types of plain and self-checks, with none for sale …

It looks to me very much like a stylised Lotus flower, esp with the golden spot in the centre. What amazing flowers they are.

I received this bow tie from our own NickD in the mail today. This is one of the many masterpieces he has created from 1930's deadstock fabric that was posted in the vintage deals section. The picture does not do this fabric or Nicks handy work justice.

I am not too keen on dating ties, but these are what I have aquired so far.

These two arrived yesterday. Seller says 1920s.

Found these two "CHIEF Hand Loomed by Indians" 100% Wool ties at the local Salvation Army today. I'm not too sure on these, 20's-50's?
