Description: Vintage 1950s Lady Manhattan Hidden Placket Long Sleeve Purple Bishop Shirt-14/L WPL 1689 Lady Manhattan was a division of Manhattan Industries – originally The Manhattan Shirt Company, founded by Lewis Levi in 1857. Abram Leeds, his son, developed the company into one of the nation’s largest shirt producers. The company would come to manufacturer brands like Henry Grethel, John Henry, Perry Ellis, and to own Frost Bros. (an upscale men’s boutique). The Lady Manhattan label was first used in 1954 and trademarked in 1956.Manhattan Industries was family-run until 1988, when Salant Corporation acquired them. (As of 2014) Salant is still active, but does not have a corporate website, and seems to focus only on menswear. This is another piece from the large collection of the personal estate of a non-smoking, no pets, public, religious figure. The collection has been in long term storage in mothballs and most likely has a storage odor. These items have not been cleaned so it is highly recommended that the buyer clean them before wearing. As most of this collection is vintage the age of the items is greater than normal used clothing and consequently may have greater wear and small imperfections that modern clothing does not have. These garments may have stains, discolorations or yellowing from age. Used garments often do not exactly match the size on the tag due to use, stretching and shrinking. Please rely on the "Actual Size" in the measurements below as that is the actual size of the garment, and not a typo.
