Speaker segment by Chuck Blackburn, selling the book “The Essential Book on Bow Ties, The Bow Tie Bible”

About Chuck:
Chuck Blackburn grew up and graduated college in Texas. He and his wife live in beautiful Brentwood, Tennessee. Chuck has been a fan of bow ties all his life. Decades ago he owned a manufacturers’ representative firm providing fine tailored clothing, accessories, and high quality neckwear (including bow ties) to the best men’s specialty shops in a 12 state area surrounding Chicago. Chuck became aware then, that more often than not, manufacturers and specialty shop owners treated bow ties as an afterthought (a by-product to the long silk”bibs” most men wore). Manufacturers and retailers did this because bow tie wearers’ strong preference and lack of credible information and variety of choice…until now, with the International Bow Tie Society.
