Dear Folks:
Back in the day, Battistoni had a very distant branch.
Anyone know anything about it?
This tie has a dark ground and a narrow width -- 2"/5.25cm, so I suspect a make date in the 60s.
The silk rib is very rich and the sewing of the rolled edge (it's unlined) is expertly done, so I don't think it's a licensee or knockoff.
Here is the only label (click on image for larger version):
