Family Ties

I wore the yellow and blue tie at St. Ed's, but not often. I really don't like clip-ons

I wore the blue tie with red and yellow stripes at St. Ed's. It has a tiny, pin-prick size burn - maybe from a cigarette ash? I never knew how it got there. I may have worn some of the others also, but not the painted duck tie. That was dad's, and never worn by anyboy to my memory.

I've seen photos of us boys dressed fancy with clip-on bow ties, but I have no memory of it

As I continue to sort through stuff, I came across this bag which I think was from cleaning out mom's apartment. I recognize some of the ties but far from all of them.
