An excellent souvenir dragon tie from the late 1940's, early 1950's, brought back from Korea by a US military veteran. The dragon is classically styled, embroidered on to a black rayon in
both metallic thread and wire, in a variety of colors. The tie is
unbranded and unlabeled, and was likely made custom as a souvenir sold
to specifically to veterans and tourists in the 50's. This tie comes from the estate of a WWII and Korean War USMC/USMCR veteran, this tie likely being purchased on his way into or on his way out of Korea. The tie is both rather wide and somewhat short, so please refer to the measurements below before purchasing.
Measurements:
- Length: 50 in
- Width: 4.5 in
Good vintage condition. Some distortion of the fabric from the weight of the embroidery. A few popped stitches on the back. See photos for more details.
Sold as-is. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to request more photos. Thanks!
