Today marks two significant birthdays in the history of clockmaking: Seth Thomas, American manufacturer and pioneer in the mass production of clocks (1785-1859), and Edward John Dent, British clockmaker to Queen Victoria who was commissioned to design Big Ben (1790-1853). It's also the birthday of airplane pioneer Orville Wright (1871-1948). I have no tie easily related to those events, so it's a great occasion to show this beautiful Jerry Garcia tie, named California Mission.
