Cheers guys it's even better in the flesh with a nice strong coarse weave, like I said I rarely buy off the bay but saw it and 'needed' it, reckon it'll go rather well with my 'ginger' tweed suit golden yellow/mustard waiscoat and complimentry pocket square ( probably blue?).

Ok whilst out and about I often see ties labelled as Myung Ju Silk, I know they aren't vintage but some are 'vintage' in style and some are quite nice in their own right and very suitable for the office but what is Myung Ju Silk?

it is funny that you put it that way there should be an equals sign between that phrase. Myung Ju = Silk.
In Chinese characters it means silk so if they are trying to say Chinese silk then they are getting a bit redundant.

Yes, even light blue would be smashing as a pocket square.

I've shown this one before, but...Thought it would be appropriate for a field trip today to the L.A. Zoo:
A Custom DeLuxe Cravat, styled by Wormser, although a second label states, "A Tru-Lov Cravat," and adds, "Luxure' Rex." A stamp on the inside of the rear blade also shows that it was once owned by the Palace Costume Co. on Fairfax in Los Angeles. Very short!

A tie you can wear with an Aloha shirt.
There is a shark in that bamboo! Wormser made nice ties and hats.

Both great ties. The Cutter is older than the Sulka by a bit.

No, no land shark there; it's a slide-on...And, yes, Wormser made some nice ones, although it's not a common brand to find.

California Tones by Cohama were always colorful. Just about anything you got from Cohama back then was not sedate.
If I saw a ten color from them it wouldn't surprise me. Cutter was no slouch either though:

Congratulations, MD. Cutter and Sulka are two top makers. The Cutter especially swings.

I recognize that ad...Beautiful ties, and $2.50 was probably 50 cents above the "average" price for that time period.

I would take and wear any and all of those ties. I would wear the heck out of them too.
I know that when I go into a menswear shop today; I cannot say the same thing.

Like I've said, and you'd agree: Give me $500 in late-'40s bills, send me back to that time period, give me two hours in a haberdashery, and then bring me back...

I don't need the money. Just bring me AND the Haberdashery back. I'll get rid of the people in there before we bring it all back---don't worry (FIRE!)
