Very nice Eric. I went with the bird theme today as well.

The bird was in the heavy brush earlier,

but it's warmed up a bit, so he came out to sun.

That is a really sharp tie. Penny's, in it's day, would have been fun to shop.

Thanks Eric. Yes, it would be a blast to drop into a Penney's from the 30's or 40's or 50's. I find their current Stafford line to have made some of the better fitting sport coats and suits with nice fabrics from the 80's into the 2000's.

Today's vintage tie, hat and vest was my effort to matching decade (50's).

Love the old brocades - but they have become rare in here!

Vintage B. Altman tie worn this afternoon.

Found a couple of not very old ties yesterday.

IMG_8817 by Michael A2012, on Flickr
Neither one has a maker's label, but the cotton Madras has a WPL number that tells me it was made by Warnaco.

And who could resist a tie that is covered with dogs chewing on dead ducks. Ha ha.

Thanks Dale. I was happy to run across this tie again yesterday. It was buried on my rack. Ha ha. I love that thin and shiny fabric they used back then. And very glad to see that that suit still fits me despite the extra 10 or 15 lbs I've put on this winter.

Thanks viclip. I almost always wear my pocket watch when I wear a dress vest. Not so much with my Filson mackinaw vest.
And staying on the subject of ties, today it is a Scottish made Campbell tartan woolie

The pocket watch, my only one, was my Grandfathers. Nothing fancy and I think if I recall it was made in 1912

Missing the second hand, and I believe I have a vague memory of being involved in that issue about 60 years ago. Ha ha.

Thanks,
Michael

Hey, South Bend is in my back yard. I only did a quick search, but if it's the same company it was founded by the Studebaker brothers in 1903, so the timeline would match. Studebaker was most famous for covered wagons and then one of the early pioneers of automobiles the first half of the 20th century. South Bend (the city) pretty much owes its existence to Studebaker and Notre Dame.

^^^^^ Love that dog/duck tie @Michael A !

that's the company. I'll trade you the watch for a Studebaker Hawk. Ha ha. Always one of my favorite car designs.

They did a good job of embroidering all of those spaniels and mallards on there.

Thanks,

Hi all, finally returning after a long and unintended hiatus. I'd like to show a piece I recently acquired and one that is probably my oldest..a Rogers Peet from (I believe) the 50's. Considering its age and the fact that it came from a thrift store, it's in fantastic shape, aside from one frayed area (last picture) that can't be seen when worn. And in all honesty, it's one I'd like to let go of, so expect to see it soon, on the site's classified section.
