That's a nice creel full, Bob. Seems like it's ages since I've even been in a thrift store. let alone found any decent ties.

Thanks Michael! It was nice to be out (although not without some trepidation).

Thanks for sharing that, Bob. I needed to see it. I was starting to feel like my own collecting was kind of out of hand. Now I don't feel like that at all.

Awesome!!

And since i no longer feel bed about my tie collecting habit...heres a pheasant tie I recently picked up...in spit of the fact that I already have a generous supply of them.

It was cheap enough to be within my self imposed budget (although I've totally ignored that a few times lately) but mainly the graphics remind me of a vintage shot glass that I have.

Very nice!!!

I was wearing a 50-cent Hermes tie yesterday. Although who can tell in this photo.

I read somewhere (a while back) that the three-digit design numbers ended in the 1970s.

Always a super cool picture!
When I saw it for the first time a few years ago, it was clear to me that I would
1. I will never have too many ties and I will continue to buy them diligently
and 2. my flat is faaar too small!

I can only agree with Bob: both are very sharp: Skål to you!

Bob, Dave, and Matt...much appreciated. Also much appreciated are all te ties you guys share. I hope we all find a stack of them in 2021.

 

[Mean Eyed Matt]

So we all hope, Dave!
You all know I got a big bundle of ties last year
but I only showed a small part of it a while ago.
But a big part of this bunch has not yet been cleaned,
steamed/pressed and photographed for you gentlemen.
So for 2021 I should hope to find more time first,
before I hope to find more ties that I can't show.

I put on a tie for the first time in a long time today.

 

[Mean Eyed Matt]

That's a nice one - and an interesting jacket too!

Thanks Matt. I think the jacket is from the early 60s.

Terrific tie for a somber occasion. Condolences sir. The pandemic has taken from our family also and I share your loss. It did not have to be. Be strong.

I do like the tie.

Thank you Eric....and so sorry for your loss as well. I don't know the situation in Minnesota but here in Alabama it seems a little more common sense might improve things immensely.

I hope that none of us need put on a tie for this reason again any time soon.
