retro ties, vintage ties, cool ties

for April !


from an 1880s German language book on flora and fauna that I have
 comes this print of a Wasserhuhn aka moorhen

Note that the actual tie is NOT NOT NOT blurry.  
The blur you see is the fault of my  photo-editing program.  
======================================================================

Not what you'd consider a tie for a grown man, but try it and watch the gals from the Accounts Inconceivable department climb all over you.
 =======================================================================

If you're not handsome, you could at least be Handsum

 From another of the dozens of old fruit crate labels I recently got out of an estate.
=========================================================================

From the 1939/40 edition of Air Trails Annual, also in my possession, comes this VERY cool print of the 1939 British Fairey Junior Medium Bomber
=====================================================================

From a Victorian trade card
 
Darlington, Runk & Co. of Philadelphia was an importer of silks, brocades, lace, passementerie, and other ladies' accessories, from around 1870 to 1900.
==========================================================================
