You would think of that. lol lol lol

And then we'd have a video of him talking about removing stains from blue dresses.

I own two bow ties, one that is a cheater and normally worn with tux not a big deal brand name on it, the other is a Leonard Brand bow tie. That is more flashy, not vintage, but a bit larger than most and I like it as it really stands out nicely.

If you don't realize by now, Marc would not only think of that, he could probably be accurate in telling you how much extra folding money that fellow has in his wallet, to the dollar!

I really dislike those modern slick silk bowties. The darned things just do not tie right and they don't lay right unless you are constantly adjusting them. They are cheap but be warned that the fabirc is just too flimsy to be a decent bowtie. Not enough body.

As long as it isn't MY folding money he has in his pocket.......

I found a no name, non vintage silk cheapy on Ebay that is a good one. It actually feels like a 60$ bow tie. It's thick, stays in place and doesn't slip or anything. Sometimes ya hit a home run. Not that it makes up for the junk I've bought on Ebay and struck out with, but the glass is half full.

Good find then. I just dislike the thin and slippery types.

I suppose ties could get in the way of a Thompson.

This week's Bow Tie Friday, again the recipient of numerous kind comments, and even one enthusiastic wowsers type response.

Here's my collection so far. They're all vintage; a couple are vintage homemade. Please excuse the sub par mobile phone photos. The colors are a little off, so if you have a specific question about one, please ask.

 

[Dubya]

I have only one question Twill.



When can you mail them to me!

 

[Twill]

I'll take that as a complement, sir, and say "thank you".
