On this date [REDACTED] and [REDACTED] Penneys Store Number 44 located on Maryland Parkway, were interviewed by the reporting agent. They were shown a black snap-on tie with a Towncraft label and #3 Penneys also on the label.

[REDACTED] advised that to his knowledge it would be impossible to tell at what store or location same was purchased. He stated that the #3 signified that the tie sold for one dollar and a half. He advised that the tie was of polyester material and washable and as such was a favorite item worn by waiters or busboys or bartenders.

[REDACTED] checked the tie counter of that store and exhibited the same type of tie, as to color and material and snap on, but this tie was approximately two and one half times the width of the one shown to him by the reporting agent. He stated that it has been at least a year, and probably a year and a half, since that store handled the narrow type. He advised that these ties are not a dress-type tie but usually worn by working people. He advised that these ties are usually purchased by that store in bulk orders of thirty to forty dozen at a time.

Regarding the tie clasp with the imitation pearl centerpiece, attached to the tie, they concurred in advising that they would have no way knowing where it had been manufactured or sold.
