MelancholicNostalgic, BobHufford and Dh66 - great ties! I always enjoy seeing your American styles.

I'll start of with an American one that I came across: A '"Botany" Brand "Regence"' - any of you know that particular run? It's a nice little label. I assume late 1940s?



A regular Terylene - great for everyday wear!


A new favourite of mine. No label, but the wool is very firm and the colours very dark and broody.


A great bright Munrospun, with typical reinforcing stitching around the neck, and a dinky little shop label too!


Gold Crest by Favourite and a really old St Michael tie. Both silk, the St Michael in an especially soft type.

On to plaids etc.!



These three are Klippers





This one is nicely toned-down.

Some from the Tootal thread:







Dh66 recommended I put this cravat over here too - it's a bit of an odd pattern! He pointed out it's channeling that Tiki lodge vibe. I like that.

Eddie's tiki/bamboo cravat!

Looks like you've had a pretty good run lately Eddie! Some nice ones in there. You are an undisputed powerhouse of plaid. That brown and green Linosair may be my favorite one yet! Those colors work wonderfully! And of course, that cravat is tootaly cool! (You like how I did that?) It makes me want to drink something involving lots of rum.

Haha very good dh66, very good Thanks very much. And thanks for posting that picture - I didn't realise I hadn't posted it! I never need much of an excuse to drink some rum, so I guess I'll throw the cravat on and get a short measure of something!

I also like that brown and green Linosair number. Although understated, it's actually rather nice indeed, and goes very well with a dash of tweed

Can you tell me anything about that Botany at the top?

 

[esteban68]

Some great finds there Eddie...The Tootal sports and blue label Tootal are VERY nice indeed...cracking finds those two!

 

[Eddie Derbyshire]

Thanks mate 'Sports' are damned rare as it is, but when I found one with that pattern I couldn't believe my eyes!

 

[dh66]

I'd say you're estimate is as good as mine. I'd guess 40s, maybe early 50s.

 

[esteban68]

The bright Munrospun is a beauty too, are these new one's on the Munrospun thread?
I wonder if the Foster bros is the same Fosters we had in chesterfield up til fairly recently?

 

[Eddie Derbyshire]

Yeh when I get time I'll post them over on the Munrospun thread - I've got some others for there too.

Could be! Although they came from a lady I know down Leicestershire.

I fully agree again! I also like the wool Botany "Regence" very, very much. Thanks for posting them.
