These weren't a quarter, but they were under $5 for the pair. An unbranded hand-painted with a fishing theme (rod and flies, but no fish....just like my last trip to the river) and a Seneca Cravat with a dog on it. I was in Baltimore back in the fall and found a dog head tie in a vintage shop. The pup on the tie looked a whole lot like my dog Peanut. They were asking $65 for it, though, so it stayed in Baltimore. This dog looks nothing like Peanut, but if you squint real hard and it's dark and you've been drinking, it might not look much like my other dog Lilly, either. But anyway, it was only 3 bucks and I didn't have a dog head tie in my collection, so here we are.

I've collected vintage ties for a few years (decades, truthfully) but a Hollyvogue has always eluded me. Until now! Not only does it have the buckstitching on the end, a feature I've long admired, but it has little brass studs trimming the bridle of the larger of the two horse heads. AND some pretty killer - if not entirely politically correct - graphics on the label.

Dang! Congrats on the killer tie.
