    Hello, this is my first post on this forum (forgive me if I lack knowledge I'm trying to learn) I saw this shirt on a website, but it intrigues me. I don't know this label which looks indeed vintage (I looked in the resources I can't find anything about it) so I would like to know if anyone knows this brand. Finally, I can't date the shirt, I would say 80's but I have a doubt? If anyone can help me, thank you in advance my English is not perfect as I am French. Thank you 6665ff46e0126_download.jpg 6665ff65970b9_download.jpg 6665ff88911b6_download.jpg

    Welcome!

    Would you call those prints Provencal? Beautiful.

    I could find 2 mentions of Gerard Saint Albin in the Daily News (New York) dating from 1970: Daily_News_1970_10_08_page_137.jpg

    Hi, I would say the shirt is quintessential 70s judging on a color and overall folk vibe. The style of care label is post 1963 and pre 1985, and also feels very 70s to me considering the listed symbols and compostion / cleaning info. I almost certain it’s mid to late 1970s.
