Shirt opens at the front to waist level and closes with bone or glass buttons. Front pleat. The shirttail is longer at the back and the back is slightly gathered into a yoke to give room for comfort. The collar is on a band. Fabric is cotton flannel, it's fleecy on the inside.
Three piece sleeves, side split gusset, (mostly) felled seams and length indicate 1930s. No brand label.
