Those are some sharp ties there bud! Very nice 50's Ames Era styled ties. I really like that gray/blue second one from the left in the first photo! That's sharp!

As for deco, they're a little late to be art deco. The "Art Deco" period was started in 1926 to 1936 give or take, anything after that was really known as "Streamline Modern".

What is the timeline to classify a tie as "Streamline Modern"?

I like that term.

thank you,

Well, streamline modern started in the mid early to mid 30's... continued on into the early 50's. The Jet age and space age really changed the overall design about mid 50's.

Hope that helps,
