Original 1960s RAF Officer's Black Tie by 'Terylene'

£25.00 Approx $31.13, €29.17

Code: 54392



An original 1960s black coloured British made tie as worn By RAF Officers during the Post-war period. 

RAF Officers kit was all private purchase and bought from a variety of gentlemen’s outfitters. Some would have had their own ties but most would have stocked ties from another company. This example came with other pieces of RAF officer's clothing from the 1950s and 1960s and is therefore a guaranteed RAF example, rather than a similar period tie of the right style.

The construction of the tie is typical of ties made during the 1960s. It is a single piece construction and not backed like later ties. The material is again typical of the period being made of terylene in the ICI factory as many ties were during this period. 

The tie is in nice condition and displays well.

This is an excellent opportunity to acquire the correct tie for your RAF Officers uniform or mannequin.
