This and That About Neckties

Remember the Maine! To hell with Spain!

This is the rhyming phrase popularizing the opinion by the United States that the country of Spain was responsible for the explosion of the USS Maine battleship while docked in Havana Harbor, Cuba. Here is more information from Wikipedia.

This Ship Portholes Tie features three different scenes, one of a palm tree, which have very well been seen looking onto the Cuban mainland, colorful sailboats and someone lounging at the beach under an umbrella. The last two don’t exactly ring true for the turn of the century, but this tie was the best I could do – sorry!  Check out our other Nautical Neckties for ships, lighthouses &  anything you’ll find at the beach!
