Show us your TIES

[Quigley Brown]

Found these for two bucks a piece at a local Salvation Army.
I believe the same gentleman owned this group. The local SA never has a decent vintage men's tie.

Goodness, those are all a great find for your style.

This one is the only one I've found for a couple of months...a Goodwill find. Nothing spectacular, but it's better than nothing. 1940s, no label.

The color of those is definitely better in person. Definitely a 50s era tie.

Yes, you need to see it in natural light. And you're right about it being a typical '50s-era tie...Let me pull out some more from the bag...

An interesting entry on Viyella material and William Hollins and Co.

I would be very happy to own all (or any) of these ties. Well done. About a month ago I had a similar find in a charity shop - five good mid-20th century ties that I guess had all belonged to one man.

Meanwhile, this is my latest find. It is a silk by T.M. Lewin. It is probably the longest tie I own. The feel of the silk reminds me of a very similar 1940s tie I own. The label is certainly not a modern 'Lewin' label. But the length and the shape make me think it relatively modern (by 'modern' I mean 1970s or a bit later). Is anyone familiar with the style of the label and have any idea when they changed label designs (I know the modern ones have the date the company started)?

^^I especially like the two on the left side, Dinerman.

From a couple of days ago. No labels, very light gray, feels like acetate/rayon, c.late-'50s. Theres's a little bit of red interspersed within some of the criss-cross motifs.

Some nice ties there Feraud here's my latest find, an almost mint Anthony Haines 'Vardoc'c 1975;

 

[Widebrim]

^^Nice stripes ensemble. Do you know for sure that it came out in '75?

 

[esteban68]

No not entirely, it came into a local shop along with a load of other gents clothes that according to the lady in the shop " was all bought whilst the ladies husband was still working, and he retired in 1978" also Anthony Haines didn't exist until 1975 although Vardoc did, Anthony Haines are still going I believe...I'll get in touch with them to see if they can date it better!

Definitely a keeper.

I have a similar Hollyvogue Westerner myself, though not with a tag!

 

[Widebrim]

Definitely a keeper.

I agree! And it's a Hollyvogue!

 

[jamespowers]

Definitely a keeper.

Definitely. It looks like a Stirrup Hollyvogue but with much less of the leather thong through it. The handpainted steer head and gunbelt also add quite a bit to it. Nice find there.

Gunbelt? Are you sure that it isn't a yoke?

 

[jamespowers]

Gunbelt? Are you sure that it isn't a yoke?

Yes, you are right. It is. A gunbelt would have been better though.

True. lol
