Amazing Loop Collar shirt, with all the details you'd expect from the period- Loop Collar, square tail, bold pattern. The material appears to be a mix- I would say rayon- cotton, rather than poly- cotton, since the material has a nicer feel, yet needs minimal ironing. The collar has a lovely spearpointed shape to it, it's definitely wider than a the Late 50s/ Early 60s style. The label is long since removed, so I can't be certain of the age, but I would judge it to be early 1950s? For instance, having owned a few 1970s examples- although wide the collar is proportional and not quite so batwinged, with the exception of Pendleton's the double pocket; especially an open one was fairly unique to the 1940s to early 1960s, also 1970s shirts tend to be a more obvious mix
