Show us your TIES

[John in Covina]

The brown one is unusual, some interesting shapes and geometric lines.

I'm not seeing geometric lines. Are we looking at the same tie? [huh]

I was refering to the dots and lines and the pattern within the artist pallet shape seems like a geometric pattern.

Ah, i've got what you mean now. Feraud, read this as a demand for good pics of the brown one when you have it!

Jeeze...you guys are making a big deal over the brown one when the campfire tie is the one I wanted to show off! lol
O.k. more and better pics to come.
Btw, these painted ties are very nice. The paint is raised(thick) and gives texture to the ties. The campfire and leaves have especially raised surfaces. I'll take outdoor pictures with good sunlight to show 'em off.

I did get two wool knit ties at the second hand shop for free...I think the seller found them very ugly.
Narrow and with square ends...one iin blue, one in brown with flecks.

They were popular in the sixties... and thirties too? Is there a big difference between 60s and 30s knit ties?

It was there. You missed it because it was next to the nude tie. lol

You should have sent them some pictures of some o your great ties. The picture they used makes you want to stop wearing ties. I wouldn't wear a single one of those pictured. :eusa_doh: Looks like they pulled out a bunch of rumpled 70s ties for that picture.
