This original 19th century men's shirt in pristine condition was a deal
I couldn't miss :shock::yes:
It really made it into the 21th century after 128 years of having being made.
Material is pure raw linen and sewn by hand.An invest for the future ,
although I don't have in mind to re-sell it presently ,maybe sometime in the
future I will.

I'm not sure how you would store that shirt but I would be finding the best way how to preserve it! Nice find.

Thanks.
I guess this shirt was made for an special occasion ( wedding etc.) because
of the date and all. It may have been used once and then stored in some attic
or furniture drawer or truck for decades.....
 
That must have took forever to make :shock:
Beautiful find indeed!
