Nice one Unders! Very interesting shirt that does seem to be handmade considering that the it's a pullover chambray, which started to go the way of the Dodo in the mid to late '30s, plus it has a 1910s-style squared collar shape, but no chinstrap, no chest pocket (many 1910s shirts would have just one pocket), and short sleeves, like a 1910s-meets-'40s style mashup.

After Unders' post I went searching for my old copy of "Found" hoping it hadn't gotten lost in a move. I found it along with a separate White Oak pamphlet from the factory visit. I even found the boarding pass from LGA to Greensboro. I doubt that's of much interest to anyone but me, but here's the White Oak pamphlet.
