26) Brooks Brothers. This is stamped with a star on the back of the blade in the knot area; I believe from this and the label that this is a Brooks Brothers second, although there's no keeper and I can't find any flaws. It is a lovely, classic tie, 3 5/8", and just $12.





27) Silk organzine warp and skein dyed; this is a lovely vintage tie from Bert Pulitzer! It has the very start of a rub on the left side of the leading edge of the tip of the blade, hence juts Very Good condition. 3 1/2". $9.

29) Brooks Brothers Basics. A wonderful summer trellis pattern! As far as I can tell there's no difference between the Basics and the Makers lines from Brooks. 3 5/8. This has a tiny smudge in the knot area, hence just $12.





30) Toye, Kenning, Spencer of London. Tie made exclusively for the Royal Regatta at Henley. Founded in 1685 and still owned and run by the Toye family, this firm specializes in making regalia, especially for Guilds, universities, and Freemasons.

36) Garrick Anderson. Palm trees emblematic. This is wonderful, with both the stylized palm trees and the deep iridescent green background giving this lovely tie a very 1950s/early 1960s feel! 3 3/4". $12.





37) Ugo Bassi. Made in Italy. Cabbages and beets! A lovely whimsical tie. 3 5/8". $14.





GROUP 7: More Regimentals!

38) This tie was made in Great Britain by Welch, Margetson & Co. of London, one of the premier shirtmakers in London, which also specialized in ties. Founded in 1824, this firm closed in 1963.... which means that this tie is likely late 1950s. It was originally sold by Langrock of Princeton, THE bastion of the American Ivy Style. It still carries all of its Langrock labels, which note that it was made for Langrock's by Welch, Margetson. It has some memory in the knot area, and so is in Very Good condition. 3 3/16". $15.





39) Husband's Corner was an upscale menswear store based in Florida, with a branch in Lake Placid, NY. It was founded in 1969, and folded before 1992, when its trademark became defunct. This is a lovely classic Talbott tie that retains its HC label. This is 3 1/4", and originally retailed for $10--back when $10 was worth something! Excellent condition. $14.





40) Robert Talbott. Genuine regimental tie: The Highgate School of England, founded in 1565. Excellent condition. 3 3/4". $13.

42) GRAIL! Another Welch and Margetson tie for Langrock. Very Good/Excellent condition; likely late 1950s, early 1960s. 3 3/8". Just $14.





43) Harry Ballot of Princeton. A rival to Langrock and The English Shop! A lovely tie. Poly/silk, although this appears to be pure silk. Very Good/Excellent condition. 3". Asking just $11.





44) Resilio regimental. Absolutely beautiful! 3". A lovely tie! Excellent condition. Just $13.
