I've seen that book "Daddy's Ties" advertised on various sites, but haven't ordered it because I didn't know if I would find it useful. Thanks for posting these photos Barb - I'll be getting that book for sure, now!
Me again - Ken bought a Santa Claus tie this year to wear to his family lunch on Xmas Day, but his Mom got sick and he didn't feel like celebrating, so the tie has been put away till next year. If I put it in my stash, I wonder if he'd miss it? Nah, better not...
