Ray Strauss Scarves

[MLBLH]

I am looking for any historical information I can find about Ray Strauss and his work. I am writing a family history and he was the brother of my great grandmother. If anyone could point me to information about him, I would really appreciate it. Thanks, LH


Woops...I made a mistake. My great grandmother was his aunt!

Here is one bit of information about Ray Strauss, where you can see in this 1964 trademark information that this trademark was allegedly first used on ladies' scarves in 1962.

HERE is a link to another VFG discussion about Ray Strauss.

...and a 1969 newspaper ad notes: "Ray Strauss scarves: the imaginative designer, Mr. Strauss, will be here tomorrow. (He'll be the gentleman in our Scarf Shop with the handle-bar mustache.) His scarf colors and fabrics are superb. And what he does with fringes and polka dots lifts the Strauss scarf out of the ordinary."
