FS: Polo Navy blue suit & lot of vintage Brooks Brothers ties (Price Drop 1/26)

First off is something everyone should own: a navy blue suit. This particular example is a Polo (Blue Label) by Ralph Lauren. It has a two-button, notch lapel, center vent jacket that features 4 non-functional sleeve buttons, pockets with flaps, and several interior pockets. The pants are not cuffed and feature two reverse pleats. Inside you will find buttons to which you may secure braces, but the pants also feature belt loops. It is union made in the USA. This suit is classic. Measurements: Chest: 42" Sleeves: 22" Shoulders: 19" Length (BOC): 31" Pants Waist: 33" Total length: 41" (about 2.5-2.75" to let out) Inseam: 29.5" Leg opening at widest point: 13" Rise: 12" $130 > $100 > $75 > $55 > $45 shipped CONUS I will include a bonus free tie from this listing to the purchaser of this suit. Next up is a lot of ties I was given. These ties are fantastic. If I had to guess, I would say these are from the 60s-70s. Anyone that is more knowledgeable, please chime in on age and maker. Every tag reads as follows:
Brooks Brothers Makers All Wool Woven and Hand Block Printed in England
$20 shipped for one tie Each additional tie $15 Buy 5 ties, get one free Thank you for looking. EDIT: So I've measured every tie and here is an updated list: 1 - 3.75" 2 - 3.75" 3 - SOLD 4 - SOLD 5 - 3.75" 6 - 3.75" 7 - 3.75" 8 - SOLD 9 - 3.5" 10 - SOLD 11 - 3.75" 12 - 3.25" 13 - 3.75" 14 - 3.5" 15 - SOLD 16 - 3.75" 17 - SOLD 18 - SOLD 19 - SOLD 20 - SOLD 21 - SOLD 22 - 3.75" 23 - SOLD

That's too bad. Maybe just buy one or two?

Yes, they are. I really like them and I'm not going to be hurt if they don't sell - I'll just wear them myself. Thanks for the kind words! I will drop the price on the Polo suit since it has abnormally short sleeves: $100 shipped with free tie

Antique generally means 100 years old or older.

I'll drop the Polo suit to $45 with free tie. Last drop before the suit hits eBay tomorrow night. List of ties and their widths has been updated!
