Probably the same as seeing someone wear this in the 30s.Annixter said:Thanks for the dates gentlemen. Widebrim, when comparing the two ties I just posted to yours, it's amazing that they came from about the same period. I wonder what people's reactions were in 1950 when they saw someone wearing such a tie.

Annixter said:I just snagged this from a flea market. It is in great condition except for three very small and hard-to-notice yellowed stains at the bottom. It's 4" wide with a simple yellow tag reading: "Neckwear by Haband, Rayon." It is hard to tell from the pictures, but there is a nice paisley, or more of a circular swirl, design in the fabric that makes the colors pop when light is on them.
