Size 4T Girl's 1950s Shirt - Toddler's Winter White Long Sleeve Button Front Top with Red and Blue Alpine Flowers - NOS Deadstock - Chest 26

This classic girl's 1950s shirt is a toddler size with a sweet Alpine charm, hand embroidered with red and blue four-petal "flowers" in quaint cross stitch. It has a Peter Pan collar, long cuffed sleeves, and a dressy feel in soft challis. Made in the late 1940s to early 50s with original tag attached. The tag shows a $6.95 price from seventy years ago... this would be $74 in today's dollars!
