1940's Ties - Possibly a mid-50's one as well

Here are three coming from the forties (one of them may be more mid-50's) that I am showing to you first. They are $15 each shipped in USA - for overseas, add $3 for shipping (in other words, $18 for one, $33 for two or $48 for all three). These are not quite as flashy as many in my collection, but I had selected these with the apparent conservative tastes of many loungers in mind - I will put on some extreme ones in the next month as well as more from the late 30's. Condition is excellent on all - no holes, stains, picks, fading or wear spots. All are lined with silk or rayon satin.
1) Dark red with jacquard pattern of oak leaves - long grapevine curving the full length down the middle, beside white and yellow images of a satyr superimposed on a set of pan-pipes. Labeled "All Silk" and "Thompson Clothes, Tailored, Lincoln, Neb"
2) Dark blue with wavy jacquard weave - light blue, red and white images of lyres, harps, pipes, lutes and musical notes - labled "all silk"
3) I think this one is mid-50's due to width - just barely 3" at widest point - this one is by Sulka and is so labeled, and also "Pure Silk" - The Sulka logo is woven into the red silk lining. Depicts Egyptian heiroglyphics in gray, white and black on a red background

I'd like the blue one in the middle. I'm going to wear it to a swing gig. For those people who don't know Sulka, they were one of the finest clothiers in New York City for over 50 years. There is no better quality to be had, other than custom.

LuckyKat - I did receive your PM, and tried several times to answer before and after going out of town, but was unable to respond as your box was reported as full.

I am going home this weekend - I will check & see - are you more into the 30's or the 40's ties? I listed a nice madder silk bow tie from Harrod's on another post here in the classifieds.
