Here's some of a batch of ties I won on Ebay for about £2.50. In total there were 24 ties. A couple were rubbish but lots were very nice. There were seven 1950s/1960s terylene ties which will be donated to my son. Here are a couple of the fifties ones:

Possibly 1920s? These have a reinforced neckband:

James Powers, Guitarmasta12, and Two Types, very good ties you have got!

Last night, I won something on eBay that only cost 99 cents, with free shipping. I think this is the cheapest tie I've been able to get. It's a Superba Sugar & Spice tie, 3.5" by 50" in dimensions, although 2" is also listed below, in the link. The seller thinks it's 1950s.

£2.50......that's about US$3.75. If I came across any one of these three for that price I'd think it was a pretty good find, so I'd say if you got 2 dozen for that cost, you really scored. Congrats!

99¢!!!! Score!!!!
Pink and gray is a classic 50s color combination, and it looks like it has a nice texture, too.

Thank you! Yes, $0.99 was the price, free of shipping charges, and that's the cheapest vintage tie I've ever seen on ebay. Naturally, with two hours remaining, I tried it. It should arrive by next week. I could see this looking great with my tan suit and sports jacket, among others. I'm also bidding on one other tie on ebay, although I'll see later, if I could get it.

Good luck with the other auction.
