Here is another little handful of gems from the 30's - early 40's - these are all in very good condition with no visible damage, staining or wear that I can find. I have had them for years - they are just too darn short for my taste. I think all of these are made from sik. From left to right...
A continuation of my wardrobe reduction (30 years worth of vintage ties from 1930's - 1950's) Here are a few more ties from the 30's to the early 40's - quite short, and heavier silk brocade material. All of these are in very good condition with no flaws that I can see. $10 per tie, shipped...
Wow - have received several PM's on these - the only one available as of today is #1 in Group 1 - the brown with green geometrics. I will be posting several more of this type tie in the same price ranges over the next couple of days.

My wife and I drove by the old Lake Lure Hotel near Chimney Rock, NC after Church and Easter dinner today - we used to go there for dinner and dancing back when we were courting - they had a small band that played 1930's & 40's standards. We were always the youngest couple there - this was...
Nice set of braces by Trafalgar - excellent shape, only worn a couple of times. These are in a super, bold yet traditional, regimental style stripe of yellow and dark blue - would love to see these colors on the band of a boater or panama. Heavy, ribbed material - not sure if it is silk -...
Here is a nice pair of wing-tip brogue style spectators in black and white - by renowned English maker Alan McAfee - these are in good vintage shape - leather is still supple and strong. A few scuffs and scratches on the exterior, but nothing a good, careful polishing cannot take care of. The...
Thanks Mate - you know, I didn't think of that connection 'til you mentioned it - over in Murphy, NC there was a practice of 3 Docs who had served in World War Two together, and set up a rural practice together after the War - Dr. VanGorder, Dr. Rodda, and Dr. Blaylock - they were a solid...
Lovely Palm Sunday in Asheville - home on leave for 2 weeks!! Didn't feel bold enough to don spectators, but did go with a Panama hat and a springy tie!
