This is a fine quality vintage cotton dress shirt made in England by Turnbull & Asser of London.  The shirt is made of 100% cotton and printed in a fine checked pattern, a variation on a Glen plaid in colours of maroon with green accenting on a white background.  The shirt does up with 7 shell buttons and has three shell buttons at either cuff.  The shirt has a split yoke, a sign of quality.  I believe that the shirt dates to the 1970s as the Royal Warrant, which was granted in 1980, is absent from the label.
