People think they are so rebellious and original, when really they are just banal, boring and dumb.
My first Tootal 'Blue Quality' (1950s):
"I know I believe in nothing, but is my nothing."

for Two Types, my other two Tootals:
this is the nice crepe fabric one:
this is very thin, rayon imitating silk (although it feels a bit cotton-like too):
TT, that blue quality tie of yours is quite an unusual print for them isn't it ? also looks like crepe.

I agree that it seems to be unusual, but the more I think about their ties, the more I come to the conclusion that the patterns were almost endless. That said, the pattern is one that I would not automatically associate with Tootal. Certainly their adverts in the late 40s stress dots, plain, striped, pasiley and check but don't mention 'abstract flower type patterns'. To my mind, that is more of a cravat design than a tie design.
Some shops advertised holding a stock of over 3500 Tootal ties. I can only imagine they must have produced ties in a vast range of patterns.
I think that diagonally striped blue tie of yours is a beauty.
