Label:  Arouw Decton Perma Iron Satiste Sanforized Plus 2 65% Dacron Polyester 35% Cotton.  This appears to be an attempt to imitate the brand “Arrow” and their “Decton Batiste” line (see last photo of Life magazine 1960 ad for an Arrow Decton shirt).

This is an interesting 1950s mens shirt - definitely authentically old, but a knockoff of an established brand - still, nice 50s era quality!
