Ties of Distinction (Schiffer Book for Designers & Collectors)

Description

The guide takes readers on an easy-to-follow tour of the ties that distinguish Royal Armoured Corps from Regiments and Yeomanry, the Gurkha, Indian, and Colonial regiments from Naval and Army Corps, and the Royal Marines from Air Force. In addition, the official ties for London colleges, medical schools, Oxford colleges, and universities are pictured, along with Old Boys, clubs, and national and county designs. Ties of Distinction includes an introduction by Christopher Sells of P.L. Sells & Co., Britain's last remaining manufacturer of a complete line of today's regimental stripe ties.
