40s Men's Novelty Neck Tie Peacock Vintage VFG
This 1940s vintage necktie features a beautiful graphic of a peacock posing on an artfully spiky branch in soft shades of blue, peach, coral and white against a dark red background. The fabric is most likely rayon with a soft silky feel - it may be a jersey knit, given structure by the acetate type dark yellow lining.

CONDITION: I keep going back and forth with myself about the possibility of a bit of iron shine - I cannot decide, and if there is, it is subtle. No stains, holes or tears noted.
I measure the outside of garments, unless stated otherwise.
For menswear, the chest is measured at armpit level.
For womenswear, the bust is measured a little below armpit level, including the room created by darts or gathers.
Waist will be measured if there is one, and hips are measured about 9" below waist level. Sleeves are measured from shoulder seam or an approximation in the absence of a shoulder seam. Garment length is measured from the back of the neck, unless otherwise stated.
The measurement numbers refer to the garment, not the body inside. For best fit, measure a similar type of garment which fits you well and compare.
If the garment is shown on Josephine, my mannequin, her measurements are 31/24.5/34". Sometimes she wears a padded bra. My live models measurements vary depending on the day and year, and I don't ask them to share that.
