Here's some of the ties from my modest, but growing collection. The ties in the first photo are all vintage (40s?) except for the two on the far right, which I believe to be modern with a vintage look. If someone can help me date them that would be great. The ties in the second photo are also vintage but I believe them to be later (50s/60s?) because they are all so skinny.

Matt, all the top ones look to be Bold Look era, but I'd have to see the back of the last two. The lower photo ties appear to be late-50s. Nice collection!

This appears to me to be a modern airbrusher's attempt to re-create a vintage looking tie.

Nope, pure vintage. Vintage label, vintage material.

I have one almost exactly like it, QB. That's coralite on the "plants."

I won this old Christmas gift box full of 1930s Vintage goodies! 6 vintage ties and 1 pair of braces and mens garters, plus some linen handkerchiefs and an old photo w/Hebron Basketball team tournament ribbon from 1935:

What a great score!

Here are a few more of mine:

Tootal 'Special Quality'

Tootal 'Silver Quality'

A very thin, almost gauze-like tie by Superba:

And a rather nice MacBeth tartan tie (my daughter's middle name is MacBeth, so I had to buy the tie):

Don't forget the Beau Brummell. It is the most sedate of the three though isn't it?

 

[Widebrim]

^^Yeah, but it's still more "vibrant" than most of the ties out today...I wish Pres. Obama would wear something like it for once; these modern politicians are so into solid ties...

So unlike their policies.

I ventured a little outside my usual preference for bold look ties and bought these narrower ties today. Both are painted with reflective paints in case you're out walking at night and need to be seen. The one on the right is a Towncraft, the other is unlabeled.
