A fascinating look into the world of men's neckwear, chronicling the style, fabric, and design changes that evolved in the second half of the 20th century. The book features nearly 400 color photographs along with a current price guide. From the slim ties of the late 1950s and early 1960s to the wide and wild Kipper ties of the mid-60s was a dramatic shift. By the late 1970s men's fashion returned to a normal state and designer labels entered the fashion scene in full force. By the late 1980s and early 1990s, retro styles became apparent as manufacturers reproduced abstract and geometric styles of the 1940s and 1950s. As the 1990s progressed, new collectible ties began flooding the market . Collecting men's ties can be extremely entertaining and a real treasure hunt. Whether it be a contemporary example or one worn decades ago, a tie is wearable art!

OK,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Popular and Collectible Neckties: 1955 To the Present (A Schiffer Book for Collectors) (Paperback)
Just OK. Not very specific. Could have gotten into material types, how to better identify dates by labels or country of manufacture. I could have written this book better and I'm not an expert.
