Show us your TIES

[Shangas]

Every time I tell myself that I won't buy another tie...I somehow develop a mental deafness of some sort, and...buy another tie.

I already had a rather large collection, mostly inherited from my brother. But to that, I have shamelessly added a whole heap of more ties. Here are photos showing off some of my latest additions:

maybe it's overloaded with the megabyte sized photos people seem obsessed with uploading! Honestly, websites can't display at that resolution, guys - reduce your file sizes!!!!!1

Anybody else having trouble with Photobucket? I've been trying to upload tie photos, and the homepage just disappears, with a resulting white screen. What other sites do you fellows use?

i know its the first one i saw as i entered the shop....eye was drawn to it and the other 3 hiding behind it....i guess by its width late 50s early 60s?

I would think so. The label is so fresh it looks like it has never been worn.

I don't really own many American ties, however I saw these two last week and had to buy them:

This one doesn't have a label (except the 'resilient construction' label)

This is a Superba Cravats - Royal Sugar & Spice tie:

Superba is definitely one of the better brands of its age.

^^That's more like it...Regal had some good ties now and then, especially when they were hand-painted.

You have a point about the hand painted Regal ties:

Another 30s horse tie. Are those lassos, or maybe reins?

^^Some nice ones there, Mein Herr. Good to see a Penney's Towncraft in the mix, as well as all the U.S. ties...
