Hello friends! I find myself in need of your expertise yet again. I find dating men's clothing - shirts in particular- to be difficult, and as these are vintage French, and only one has a label, I really don't have much confidence in my ability to determine their age. Any help would be very much appreciated!
P.S. I promise I'm not lazy - I always do a lot of online research before posting questions- I need to get to my local library!

The collarless one is definitely older than the one with the collar - too bad about the damage on the collarless one which is pre 1930, possibly pre 1920, but not 19th century. The second one is post 1930 but pre WWII - I think - the collar would be larger if post WWII, unless it was late 50s - 60s, but I don't think it's that late.
 
Yes! Thank you Jonathan- evidently I'm not as ignorant as I'd previously believed. I'd come to the exact same conclusions, but wasn't comfortable stating that without first getting a second - more knowledgeable- opinion. Thanks again!
