If you know John Pertzborn, you know all about Bow Tie Tuesday. Now YOU can be the proud owner of a tie worn by bothJohn Pertzborn AND Bob Broeg (the man who inspired the bow tie craze).....in John's own words....
"Bob Broeg was a contributor while I was at KSDK Channel 5, and he would do these vignettes while always wearing a bow tie. I was a kid in my 20s starting out and here was this old dude wearing bowties and I thought, "My God look at that guy, he's still going." Randy Naughton dared me to wear one on live TV, which was very risqué, but I ended up doing it. When Bob passed, I kept wearing my bowties to honor him. His widow saw this and gave me a box of his vintage bowties - niiiice bowties from Barney's and Neiman Marcus, etc. This bowtie that is up for auction also has vintage gravy on it from Bob's own mouth so it's extra special."
Tie has been worn by both John Pertzborn and Bob Broeg
