Vintage (1960's-1970's - no care label)
Sears Western Wear Knit Western Shirt with Pearl Buttons
super dressy three (3) button cuffs
size: 17 - 17-1/2" - XL - 21" pit to pit - definitely a vintage XL - probably fits more like a large from today
fabulous long point collar is 3-1/2"
I have no idea what the fabric is - it is definitely a super soft knit - probably a poly cotton blend, but I don't know how to tell - feel free to ask any questions prior to bidding.
This is in excellent vintage condition - see photos for best indication of  condition.  The biggies are the right chest pocket has the snap and looks great when worn, but the back of the snap has pulled through the fabric, on the front, one of the snaps works, but has also pulled through the fabric - cannot tell when worn.  The little things - there is some minor pilling at the neck, there are some minor stitch issues on the left upper chest and the back decorative part. There is also a beautifully done vintage repair at the small of the back. Otherwise, this thing looks great for something that is around 50 years old.
10% of sale price donated to Doylestown, PA "Fore The Troops" - a non-profit that provides care packages to our troops overseas and assistance upon their return.  They also provide help to the families while the soldier is deployed. This particular group was chosen to honor my 80-year-old hero Dad, USAF Retired.  He flew for 30 years, everything from O-1's and O-2's in Vietnam (Silver Star, 2 Distinguished Flying Crosses, 24 Air Medals, etc.), C-124 Globemaster in and out of Vietnam, A-37s, A -10s and the 727 commercially. He said that other than letters from home, the occasional pair of clean/dry socks, popcorn and candy are what got him through some tough times as a FAC attached to a Special Forces Unit in DaNang.  Thanks for helping take care of our servicemen and women.
