    Well every girl likes paisley so line up ladies! This time paisley overload on a nice bright red scarf, it’s one of those narrow Tootals coming in at only 27cm wide and from what I have read these narrower ones date from the the 1960s anyone else heard/read that? Have a look and enjoy! PS...

    Hi Again, scarf number seventeen of my Tootal collection, a nice bright red, deep red, blue and yellow paisley one. The fringes are long and nice and straight, the label would suggest any time from the 1960s on. I’ve never worn this one hence the folds, the fabric feels new to the touch, the...

    Well I was going to add another Lemon scarf this time but had a big score, I picked up an old Tootal one with a PatentEd Finish label and it’s a beauty. I has a blue base colour featuring repeated columns of paisley patterns and two coloured tassels…hmmm a new favourite! This is a true classic...

    Carrying on the lemon okay yellow theme of scarves from my collection here’s a nice paisley number with lush red tassels! A classic 1960s scarf in my opinion hope you like it!

    Back again and the journey through my 30 odd Tootal scarves continues! This time we are going bright with a Lemon background scarf featuring a symmetrical Paisley pattern, the label is 60s 70s vintage but the smaller overall dimensions make me lean more toward 60s. The fringes on this one are...

    Great Scarf, I have asked regarding the dating of Tootal Scarf labels before but without any definitive answers, maybe no one really knows now, see my query above about the Tebilized label variants, re the patent numbered scarves I can say that style of label was being sold during WW 2...

    Back after a brief sojourn, today another Tootal scarf and this time one of my very favourites! It’s a red scarf with a large paisley pattern and a Tebilized label, with the cooler weather now here in Adelaide, Australia this one will get quite a work out! Hope you like it!

    Here’s a really bright red Tootal scarf with a nice paisley print, the yellow highlights really pop! Being a bit shorter and narrower I’d again say this is 60s vintage but who really knows! Enjoy…

    Talking Tebilized Tootal scarf labels the two below are the only versions I have seen so far, I believe the top one is the older as it is sort of in the format of the patent pending ones I have which I know are older, what do others think or more precisely does someone know for certain?

    Back to the 1940s this time! A blue Tootal scarf with a very cool and unusual pattern. This has one of the two types of ‘Tebilized‘ labels I have seen, I have no idea which of the labels was first anyone know?

    Okay something different this time, a Treasure brand scarf with Tootal fabric, when I first saw this in the op shop the fringes looked Tootalesque so I checked it out but the hidden knots stood out. I reckon it is a dress scarf to go with your tux the hidden knots on the tassels make it look a...

    Time to brighten things up, here another Op Shop find yellow with a repeated geometric pattern and vivI’d red fringing! My guess is 60s or 70s era Scarf? I wear this with a dark jacket/shirt combo and it rrally leaps out! We’ve moved from summer to autumn here in Australia but you wouldn’t know...

    I rarely see green Tootals last year I picked up two at op shops . This one features the classic small white polka dot design, it has a label and fabric make me think it is 60s or 70s vintage…

    Today a nice red scarf with a tight ordered pattern from the 60s (I would estimate), in fact I have two with the exact same pattern and label what’s the chances of that with the myriad of Tootal pattern scarves out there! Also I was lucky this week and picked up a Duggie in perfect shape for $3...

    This week another classic selection of colours and design from Tootal! A cool silvery grey with alternating geometric and paisley decoration topped off with gold tassel! Interesting the label is sewn on crookedly I’ve seen a few Tootals like this maybe assembled late in the workers shift … I...

    Here we go again with what I reckon is a venture into the 1960s, the pattern, the label and fabric feel give me that impression. blue with unusually geometric paisley pattern and two tone tassels what is not to love, in pristine condition, one of my favourites! Cheers
