Description
1950’s early 60’s shirt in a very cool iridescent blue fabric with tiny aqua flecks in the weave. There is a bit of a shine to the fabric as well. The blue color tends to change depending on the light & angle you’re viewing the fabric. (for reference, the blue color of this shirt is somewhat darker than some images posted.)
This shirt has a patch pocket and unusual brown buttons.
There is no fabric content label.
I would say this fabric is an ACETATE & RAYON blend.
The Label is really cool in multi colored threads… & a palm tree!

SIZE LARGE ….. 16 16-1/2 neck
This shirt is in EXCELLENT VINTAGE CONDITION… with one thing to point out.. The sleeve length is a bit short at 22-1/2 inches.. (standard length is 24 inches)..
so this would be better on a guy who is shorter in height..with arms that do not need longer sleeves.
***To be certain of the size, check measurements below:
