How amazing is this unique tie? A narrow (not skinny) tie from the 30s? It's made with iridescent fabric so if it appears faded or discolored in pics, so check them all. Not skinny but slim for the era. Not sure? Anyone who knows old neckties can see from the photos that this is an unusual find. Thin ties were not just from the 50s and 60s. This one is an early 30s necktie with a unique chess theme. Recurring emblems are rooks / castles, some red some in metallic gold, making this a swell gift for a special chess player. Made by Parkton, it has no tipping. Interlining intact. Beautifully woven, most likely rayon. 54 1/2" long. CONDITION: No flaws.
