East German Ties

[uscob]

Here you can post your east german Ties.
From Military to civy if you like.
Today I show the difference between the male and the female Styles. The smaller one is a female NVA.
A good indicator for a female tie is allway's the foam Padding on both sides of the Top. Males don't have them.
The other Pic shows some different shades of grey of NVA male Ties as we had the discussion a while ago. The light grey on the bottom of the Pic isn't a DDR one but the others.

that was the reason for the thread. took me a while to find the Stuff, you know the threads on my Storages. I remembered questions in different threads on getting something complete or colours, so I thought it would be interesting for the Collectors to have everything in one thread. Another reason was, some Stuff was discussed before, but it allways took a lot of time to find all the different Threads with one Post on the topic, so here, everything is concentrated. That was also tihe Idea to start several other Threads on other topics.
I have some more but have to find them.
