Nice knits Michael. The La Rinascente is awesome. Love the color flecks.

Thanks Bob. I rate that day as a very good one for the tie rack. The silk knits have a great sheen to them. And I agree the color flecks in the La Rinascente are fantastic. Though as I said, I could totally live with the striped version too. Wonder if one could make a reversible tie? Ha ha. I think it will become a great favorite of mine when I want something a bit less loud or ornate than I usually am found in.
You picked up some really cool clip ons too. A week or two ago my thrift had a bunch of clip ons in, but I passed on them as none were as nice as the ones you got.

A nice looking pair of ties. I've seen a lot of Polo I like, but those have a great pattern.

@ Michael: Nice knits there! I really start to love them...
And the Italian one is great, too! Looks like the typical European 30's/40's ties.

@ SurfGent: Normally I'm not a big fan of "modern" ties. But these art deco patterns are really nice!

Love that double tie, but I go in more for the serial wear. Change after lunch, etc.

I ran across a couple more today, not true vintage, but maybe with some interest. First was another of the very short narrow knits, this one with a label and the other a Wembley part wool model

The label on the knit one, which I've never heard of, but not researched.

And the store label on the Wembley showing it to be unused. The store changed it's name to Von Maur in 1989, so it predates that, but how much I don't know.

And another of my Lands' End wide knit silks made an outing today accompanying a wide lapel jacket.

Thanks dh66. I've been trying to add to the wool collection. Ha, who am I trying to kid, I'll add anything I find vaguely interesting to my collection. I'm easy that way. This one is actually 50% wool 35% acrylic and 15% polyamide imported fabric according to the label that can just be made out with a magnifying glass at the right angle of light. Ha ha.
Does anyone have any idea what the short narrow knit ones are? They are 39 1/2" long and 1 5/8" wide.

.....and I thought I had a tie collecting problem....

I went to repair a steam leak in the hospital yesterday, and the hospital auxiliary was having a tie sale. Seems one of the doctors had donated his collection of over 1,600 ties to be sold off to raise money for some something or other.

German 30's/40's tie - knit pattern

Very nice Matt! That's the first knitted tie I've ever seen that didn't have the straight bottom end.
