1950s and 1960s ties.

[Baron Kurtz]

In amongst the ties of the eras i'm interested in, I get many from the 50s and 60s that I don't want. These are skinny for the most part, and there are some with nice "atomic" patterns. I'll get a picture tonight. I'm not sure exactly how many ties there are, there aren't that many I know that, but £1.50 each and shipping, and they're yours.

[MissHannah]

My boyfriend would definitely be interested in some of these - do you have any pics knocking around?

 

[Baron Kurtz]

I'll get some pics. I'd rather sell them as a lot to get rid of them.

[Widebrim]

Yeah, I'd like to see some photos, too, Baron. I don't know what the shipping to California would run, but...

 

[Baron Kurtz]

It'd be quite cheap.

[kaosharper1]

I'd be interested too.

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Wow, this totally slipped my mind. I will take some pictures tonight, then upload them from work and post them here tomorrow.

MissHannah will have first pick, then Widebrim will have a dig through what's left, then kaosharper1 can have a go, etc. etc.

Also, some of them are too good to sell for £1.50 so i'll need to increase the price on some. There's one absolute beauty and super rare which will be £20, but the others won't go above £5. Some must be bought as pairs or triples.

Keep a watch out tomorrow.

[MissHannah]

Great - thanks Baron.

 

[Torpedo]

Count me in for whatever may be left...

 

[Baron Kurtz]

OK, Torpedo's next on the list for whatever rotten apples are left at the bottom of the barrell.

I'd be interested in any that aren't too skinny, though I'll wait my turn in the queue. I'm not after any fancy patterns, just something subtle and conservative.

 

[Chasseur]

My dear Baron,

Put me down for a look at for whatever might be left...

 

[Widebrim]

Sounds good, Baron.

[MissHannah]

hello Baron - sorry for the delay!

I'd like to take 1b, 2B and 2E off your hands if I may

 

[Baron Kurtz]

A man for green, is he? Good stuff! I'll get to you via PM with totals and shipping, unless you wan to collect.

Widebrim, your turn. 1B, 2B, 2E gone. Feel free to either post what you want here or send me a PM, whichever suits you best.

bk

p.s. I am prepared to press out tie 1E for the buyer before I send it. It'll take like, 5 minutes.

 

[MissHannah]

Funnily enough he is colour blind but I think he looks marvellous in green

 

[Baron Kurtz]

Well, it's not been too bad a sale, but there are quite a few still up for grabs. So far, the ones that are sold are:

1A
1B
2A

2C
2E

All the rest are still available. PM with interest. For those who've bought some, they are in the mail as of yesterday. Sorry for the delay. It's a nightmare in London getting to a post office that's open at reasonable times of day.
