Label:  Cockatoo Best Quality Made in China.  This dressing gown was made in China during the 60s when they were producing very good quality.  You don’t often see Chinese exports of this era as there was a US embargo on trade, but Canada had established trade with China during the 60s.  This was because there was mass starvation in China in 1960 and Canada came to China’s aid by supplying large amounts of wheat when no one else would help.
