    Mystery Shirts

    Thanks, Undertow. We really weren't considering silk for that shirt - that discussion is about the first, western one. When I wrote "light weight", I meant in comparison to the usual corduroy jackets or pants. As shirting goes, it's pretty meaty. The hand washing may have to do with...

    Mystery Shirts

    My original intention was to buy it to sell it. Then I started kinda' falling for the thing. :o You are a vintage clothing wheeler dealer who knows his stuff. Why the interest in this? Think it's '30s, '40s '50s?? C'mon; DISH!! ;) :D

    Mystery Shirts

    THANKS, Baron. That age assessment is somewhat surprising yet conceivable. I was thinking no later than turn-of-the-century/teens. Yes, there IS a button hole behind the button at the collar. Made me think the shirt either originally was intended for a stud there or possibly that a person made...

    I'm not big on the banning of any words. But I do get a kick out of some of the nonsense that surfaces in free society. ;) :)

    Mystery Shirts

    OK, here's one you can beat me up about. I have to admit a morbid fascination with certain '70s threads. This 'dancin' shirt' was so 'eye-catching' I had to pay the $1.00 for it. Thought I'd just bag it and see if it becomes worth something in a decade or so. Then I put it on and actually LIKED...

    Mystery Shirts

    Here's another. While the brand is not a mystery I am curious WHEN you learned types think this was made. I'm personally not familiar with that style of Towncraft design. If I had to take a stab, I'd hazard '40s. [huh] Also what STYLE would this be? Adirondack? Southwestern? Mayan...

    Mystery Shirts

    Here's one that I thrifted the other day. Seems like '30s meets Wild West, forshadows '70s. It does seem like the kind of thing which served as design inspiration for some of the disco era shirts. No tags anywhere. Wonderful fabric with interesting pattern and sharkskin effect. Very old...

    Well, I searched diligently for an appropriate thread among the many Shirt related ones. Couldn't really find the trick so, naturally, I'm going to ADD yet another one. :o Perhaps this will catch on as a place for posting pix and gaining feedback/insight on origins, style names, date ranges...

    Show us your TIES

    Wow. I checked in with the idea of posting a couple of goofy skinny ties I snagged the other day. NO WAY do they stack up to the last pile of wonderful entries!! I'm going to wait 'til things settle down here a little before lousing the place up with my 'slim' pickins of late. :o lol
