Found this older robe and curious on any info that people might have on Rabhor robes. A lot of the 50’s/60’s ones I have seen say “Rabhor Robes”.

I have had (and sold) Rabhor robes in the past, but haven't seen a plaid wool one before. Here's the label for the last one that came through my hands.

I dated mine as early 50s. At the time I was researching, I downloaded this Rabhor ad from 1938.

The font on my label is the same as the earlier ad. The font on yours is somewhat different. Hard to say what that means, but I tend to think of wool plaid robes like this as later era. I believe Rabhor closed down in the early 60s. So I would guess late 50s to early 60s.
