Vintage 1970s Mens Knit Top Mod Sweater Shirt Polo Style Mens Size M Sears

This is a vintage mens knit top or sweater shirt in a polo style, dating to the 1970s.  The front of the piece has an abstract design at the bottom that looks kind of like an exploding sun.  It has a long pointy collar in maroon purple outlined in white.  The short sleeves are in maroon while the rest of the piece is in a coral colour.  There are no closures and the shirt simply goes over the head.
