This tie I found in a souvenirshop on the pier (piece of land in the sea) in Scheveningen near Den Hague

Wow. I want one of those! :-)
I have a yellow bowtie that is similar:

I think I see one of my orchestral excerpts on that tie! I should get one of those for my dad...
I've seen those ties for sale in gift shops at a couple of concert halls here. I would have bought one but (1) they're too expensive (100% silk) and (2) I don't have anyone to give them to.
Pauline:

Are you inmplying that you'd buy a tie that is *not* 100% silk?

(ewww...)

The tie was 12,50 euro, that is about 10 Amerikan dollar. It is of 100 % silk. The website of the tiefirm is: www.robin-ruth.com, but I could not find this tie on their website, when I search for "tie" and "music".
