I have one skinny tie I bought, I don't think it's much more than an inch wide. It looks like it would hardly cover shirt buttons lol
3"? It should be 4" at least.
Excuse me, the term is "girth-challenged"...
That soiunds like a double entent there.
Here are two deadstock 1930s French ties, that FFF posted on the thread having spotted them as part of a batch for sale, which was purchased by HBK, and then these two were sold on to me. I am very happy with them.
The colours on this one are most vivid:
:rofl:
And that is quite a tie to conjure up visions of the Emerald Isle.
That is a nice-looking tie, and I bet the material is as thin as a razor...
It is indeed.
Stripes:
I like the paisley chevrons on this one, although the bottom motif is a bit "busy," I think. What's the composition, rayon, and is it now part of your extensive collection? A Signet tie, eh?
Flaming hot around these parts today......
no label....

A Superba Cravats. This sold for $1.50 back in the day at Harrison's. The label still has the price tag on the backside.
Both great, and it's especially fine to find a tie with its price tag and cardboard "wrap" still in place.
I second that. Another example of the feather theme you mentioned before.
The Flame tie is one I have not seen before.
From a flea market years ago. It's gonna be 90 degrees here today....
