Giveaway no. 3: Fit To Be Tied, or Something for the Boys

This week's giveaway offers a more manly prize than the previous two...



This week's winner will receive:

1. Three vintage ties including...

One nice wide 40s rayon tie, in a terrific brown, green, yellow, and white pattern. This bad boy has cut a few rugs in its day, but will still see you through the next lindy hop!


One spiffy not-so-wide 50s all silk Vogue tie in deep red with a black pattern and silvery-white crescent and dots. This tie loves cool jazz and narrow lapels!



One snappy bow tie in maroon with a multicolor geometric pattern. Adjustable neck band with hook and loop. In terrific condition. This is one dapper dandy in search of a porkpie (hat)!


2. Vintage shot glass with a monocled and mustached man whose googly eye follows you. "I say, jolly what!"




3. Vintage Yello-Bole pipe - cleaned, sweetened, and ready to light up or just display. Yello-Bole pipes have a bowl that has been "treated" with honey to enhance one's pipe-smoking enjoyment ;)





4. And, last, but not least, a pretty vintage pinup girl arcade card. She may have a few wrinkles but she's still lovely to look at and a pleasure to behold.



To enter this week's giveaway, leave a comment below and tell me who you think epitomizes the manly man of yesteryear (could be an actor or political figure or singer or relative or ?).

New followers will receive an extra entry, just make sure to mention this in your comment. If you post this giveaway on your blog, tweet about it on twitter, or post a link to it on facebook, you'll receive an extra entry - just be sure to let me know in the comment section.

Entries will be accepted until midnight on Friday, February 19. I'll be drawing and posting the winner's name on Saturday.


Good Luck!
