Ok, I'll tell you, ... I found my tie in a second hand street market, BUT, the ties on sale were all brand-new. And, no, my tie looks definitely different from yours. It is yellow and I took a picture of it which I will send to you soon. I made an art work out of it which, yes, I will show at an art fair. Next to it however I will have another work that in ironic way refers to mankind ever changing drive to trying out new and old political systems. I am not sure when in time these ties were manufactured, but I am definitely eager to find more of them. So, let's keep searching. If I do not post you here please write me an email. Where are you based Mr Doc? SF? Are you willing to have professional work cooperation? Best to you and hear from you soon. Frank Hi Doc….

I'm curious, does yours look like mine? I had this idea that the tie was only made in a small run 30 years ago, and then they realized their mistake, but now I'm not sure. Was the place selling new clothes or did it seem to used clothes? I’ll definitely keep my eye out for another Fascist tie.

It is surprising to see how you could not notice this label in the back of your special tie. As for me that was the first horrible thing that my eyes could catch. ;-) Anyway, to unravel a bit more of this factory mistery, I must believe that it is an Asian one. Either Korean or Malesyan or even Thai. I myself found it in a night street second-hand market in Bangkok. But the tie is brand-new. Shall we challenge each and see who will find the next one? ;-) Or even, shall we challenge our acquaintances to find the next one? As a language-interested man, I am terribly curious to know how and why this FASCIST tie line was ever "fabricated". If it is a language mis-translation it would be enormously stupid, whereas if it was simply a deliberate act, it was then tremendously vulgar. In any case....good luck with your search and Happy NEw Year 2008. Regards, Frank Hi Doc,

Thanks for telling me about your tie. I'm happy to know there are plenty more out there. I like to think it's really big in countries that don't know what "Fascist" is, and hopefully not so popular in countries that do. Unfortunately, I have no story behind my tie. I've collected neckties since I was a teenager, and until I noticed the tag (this year) this particular tie never struck my attention. I don't remember where I got it, how, or when, sorry Frank. If you do write a piece on it, I'd love to read it. Maybe you could post a link here in the comments for people to follow. Doc, my name is Doc.

I happen to have a Fascist tie myself too and just like you I was extremely surprised to find one on a street market in Asia(.....). My sample is really nice and feel sorry for not buying more that time. I am not sure where they come from but I must assue that the Asian designer must have not known the meaning behind that word. I am an artist (not a painter) and would like to know more about your story as to how and where you found your fascist ties. I am looking for more of them. Please contact me if you get this message. Best regards, Frank Dear …..
