Very interesting.
I've seen many American ties with 'foreign' or 'exotic' themes, so I suppose it's reasonable to expect that would work both ways.

50s?

I believe this is from the 1950s but it isn't easy to be certain since they did make boys ties earlier than the fifties.

I found these on a recent trip to Scotland:

Bartex wrinkle proof wool and what appears to be an early Klipper:

Munrospun and 'Gala Weave' by Linosair:

no label. This has a nice pinkish hue that works very well with dark shirt:

The first four are superb TT - my ideal types of tie! Let me know if you fancy a swap

 

[jamespowers]

Is this another one of those 'boring' British ties?

Lets see the label. Maybe it was made here for export.

Very nice JP.
A perfect example of what I was talking about in my earlier post about Two Types' cowboy tie.

 

[esteban68]

great finds TT, that Klipper is very very nice indeed, JP the bullfighting one is great with fantastic artwork!

 

[Talbot]

Love that bullfight tie. It makes a statement, doesn't it?

It makes a statement, doesn't it?

That is the best part of it.

 

[Annixter]

It's Tootal - a great British brand.

Swaps are great ... if you have any Tootals you wish to get rid of.

 

[Eddie Derbyshire]

Hah Haa! Very cheeky. I don't think I've got any Tootals that I've fallen out of love with. Are you still interested in that hand knitted one?

 

[Two Types]

what length is it?

 

[Eddie Derbyshire]

46 1/2"

 

[jamespowers]

Just goes to show that they can make a decent tie if they try. Must have been from the Tasmanian factory.

 

[Talbot]

There were plenty of Tootals sent down under, that's for sure.

You don't see so many in thrift stores these days however

If you ever find any of those 'Boys' ties, you know who to contact! I'll be waiting here.
