The t-shirt had always been worn as an under garment, but during WW1 soldiers would write their unit names on them, and the modern printed t-shirt was born! This continued in WW2, when services or units would have t-shirts printed to build 'espirt de corps'. This is a great example, in a very rare red colour way was likely made for a basketball or other sports team
Condition
For an 80 year old t-shirt this is in great shape. There are a couple of small holes to the reverse, but still wearable with some care.
