That's the one!

Man, it is pretty ugly, though. Wasn't it previously entered in a "why on earth would anyone make a tie out of that fabric?" contest?

The one I'd been staring at for years trying to figure out what it was.....

That's good. Oh, that's good. That, my good Quigley, is one ugly tie. I'd even spell it uggly for emphasis.

 

[Dr Doran]

I think you have the ugly winner there compared to the others posted so far. Out of the 1930s ties posted, it wins hands down.

The contest has barely begun.

Is that a curling tie clip? I've seen some sports designs on clips before but never curling.

That sure is. And last night I won a set of curling cufflinks. Not terribly vintage (1973) but pretty cool, nonetheless. Also some "new" curling pins. Some of the coolest I've run across.

You're still winning so far in my book.

I find these hand-painted ones a bit too eggs 'n bacon for me...

Quigs, they are beauts.

Quigs, they are beauts.

My thoughts exactly. Doran still has the lead.

It's not vintage and my last name is not Thomas but I saw this for 11 bucks (all the others were 30)at EPCOT in Disney this weekend on vacation and had to snag it. I really liked the little Griffin on the bottom too!

Can someone please explain the difference between a Cohama "California Drape," a Cohama "California Casual" and a Cohama "California Swagger" tie. Thanks.

EDIT: Here is my Cohama "California Drape" originally sold by Chaix-Copley of St. Paul:

Got a tie I think is from the '40s... will show it soon.

Shameless Plug

See Classifieds for the last of my 1940s ties. I'm now officially strictly a 30s necktie man. There are also some 50s/60s ones left from my previous sale . . .

Here's a Valentines-themed Countess Mara I just dug up. You won't see me wearing this on Thursday as I really have no reason to. [huh]

[jamespowers]

Wear it and maybe you might have a reason to. You know the old dressing as if you might end up in a place more interesting bromide.

Here are some Holland & Holland ties.

I got them off of ebay, each one was less than $20. It seems the ones with the shotgun cartridges or headstamps go for the big bucks. I like these because of their safari theme.

^Nice. I like H&H stuff a lot. It does go high on ebay, though. Here's one I have that I thrifted:

New narrows...

One on the left is 85% wool, 15% silk.

So, you're who I've been bidding against?
Very nice Alan.
