I have a series of beautiful ties to pass on today, including some beauties from Holland & Holland, Langrock, Brooks Brothers, and Dunhill.
As always, I offer FREE SHIPPING ON EVERYTHING in the USA; International inquiries are welcome, with shipping at cost.
Also as always, ALL OFFERS ARE VERY WELCOME, especially on two or more ties!
NB: Unless otherwise noted, all ties are in excellent condition.
GROUP 1: Regimentals
1) Vintage red-label Jos. A. Banks. 3 1/4". The old, good kind. This has a minor rub on the back edge of the tip of the blade, and so is in Very Good condition only. Hence, just $10.
2) Nautica. A lovely, standard regimental tie. 3 1/4". $10.
3) Raleigh's. A classsic tradly regimental, perfect for summer poplin! This has the start of a rub to the back of the hem which can't be seen at all when worn, and in any case is almost unnoticeable; some minor disbalance to the blade, hence just Very Good condition, and so just $10.
4) Vintage Brooks Brothers Makers in the classic No. 1 stripe and color! 3 1/8" Excellent condition. $15.
5) Princeton University Store, in Princeton colours! 3 3/4". $14.

8) Vintage Jos. A Banks. Another tie that would be perfect with seersucker or a tan poplin suit! A classic No.1 stripe. 3 1/4". $13.
9) Brooks Brothers. This is stamped with a star on the back of the blade in the knot area; I believe from this and the label that this is a Brooks Brothers second, although there's no keeper and I can't find any flaws. It is a lovely, classic tie, 3 5/8", and just $12.

30) This tie was made in Great Britain by Welch, Margetson & Co. of London, one of the premier shirtmakers in London, which also specialized in ties. Founded in 1824, this firm closed in 1963.... which means that this tie is likely late 1950s. It was originally sold by Langrock of Princeton, THE bastion of the American Ivy Style. It still carries all of its Langrock labels, which note that it was made for Langrock's by Welch, Margetson. It has some memory in the knot area, and so is in Very Good condition. 3 3/16". $15.
