Product promo trinkets often out-live the products.
I have a Mindset digital clock from 30+ years ago. It still works. Remember Mindset computers? No, I didn't think so. lol

Never heard of Mindset, but I have an Osborn.

What purpose does a tie serve? A tie is nothing more than a piece of fabric designed to cover up a row of buttons. Does no one see the irony in a tieclip with buttons on it? Sheesh!

That's not a tie clip with buttons to stay a tie that covers up buttons, it's a tie clip with knobs. That makes it alright. All is well.
Most sartorialists agree that the necktie originated in the 17th century, during the 30 year war in France. King Louis XIII hired Croatian mercenaries (see picture above) who wore a piece of cloth around their neck as part of their uniform. While these early neckties did serve a function (tying the top of their jackets that is), they also had quite a decorative effect - a look that King Louis was quite fond of. In fact, he liked it so much that he made these ties a mandatory accessory for Royal gatherings, and - to honor the Croatian soldiers - he gave this clothing piece the name "La Cravate" - the name for necktie in French to this day.

And I had always thought that "cravats" were used to keep gravy from dripping down onto the front of the blouse. Later on in the 19th century, napkins came into vogue.
Lots of heavy sauces used in old French cuisine.
Great pic.
...I do but only at weddings.
Problem: no ties.
