Show us your TIES

A couple I acquired recently. The left one has no tags and an odd texture that feels man made but durable with no lining. I doubt either are golden era, but I got them for 1$ and they look like they've never been worn.

The pattern on the Cervantes is nice. I would wear it. :p
It looks like a design you would have seen in a brocade tie from the 30s.

okay, it's been a while since I've posted photos, so here we go.

The bow tie has no labels, but the first red from the left is a Paracas, made from Alpaca Wool.

The next red is a 1930s tie no label,

The herringbone green is a Marquis Super.

The next green is a townecraft and so's the blue one after that.

I love the blue one.
How is it up there? Ready for the dark all day times?:p

First off I know not all of these ties are vintage but quite a few are hand me downs from my dad and the rest are Goodwill finds. I'm interested in any comments and possible ages on them.

Left is a Louisville Rhodes, age unknown, presumed to be 1980's
Right is a Lombardi I purchased in Italy in the 90's

Dad gave me all his ties last year since he wasn't using them anymore, I cherry picked the ones I like best although I don't wear them as often as my vintage ties.

I think that you're pretty much correct on most of the dates. The unknown tie from Levy's, though, appears to be early-'50s. I have a tie that is a close copy of your Pilgrim butterfly example; very nice. The hand-me-downs appear to be '80s.
