Yes, that's a sweet one , Bob
I have plenty with minor staining, it comes with the territory. Hasn't ever stopped me from buying one, especially for a buck.

Love it. I'm a big fan of yellow ties.

It's about time you went on holiday then! You know what I'm looking for!

As good a reason as any for a holiday! I've got a couple pieces I can pass on. I'll sort them out soon.

A friend picked this up for me in a thrift store in Sidney, Nebraska while she was on vacation.

That's a nice one! Subtle but with a bit of fun. How wide is it? I've got a similar label on a super-skinny Wembley.

I'll measure it when I get back home and will report back.

Of course! If you know where they are still making them, let me know. I could use a few in other colors.

Thanks Eddie and Dale -- it's 52-1/2" long by 2-1/2" wide.

Thanks for the details Bob. The one I have is only about an inch!

Some British ties now:
A 'Munrospun', with a cute little ram on it:


Here, my favourite brand, 'Klipper', and a brand I've never heard of, 'Baratex'. I assume it's British - maybe someone can confirm?



A really nice yellow tie, no label, I think made out of wool, although it seems to heavy and 'floppy' for wool. Could be Rayon I suppose. And a 'JC All Silk' tie, probably 1960s, with a nice little shop label from Maidenhead, which I believe is near London.


Thanks for looking folks!

Nice finds Eddie....The Baratex label looks somewhat similar to Abtex labels?

 

[Eddie Derbyshire]

Yes! Hadn't though of that! Thanks! I've only got one Abtex though. D'you have some?

Thanks for that TT! When's the photo from?
I love collecting ties with independent shop labels on. They always appeal to me.

Nice finds Eddie. I like the blue plaid one. It has an interesting looking weave pattern in the colored areas.....or maybe it's just my screen.

I have two Eddie IIRC, I saw a tie today with a similar name ending in tex made in London but out of terylene no real interest other than the name which sadly I've forgot but may have been Estex? I've also bagged two mint early Tootal cravats I'll post pics ASAP.
