guaranteed not to wrinkle or wilt! That’s
what we call amazing, and you will,
too, when you wear the Van Heusen
Century — America’s fastest-growing single
shirt. The Van Heusen Century collar
can’t curl or crumple, wilt orevrinkle ...
stays fresh and neat through the longest,
hardest day ... no matter how much
you punish it. Wives’ delight, too.
So easy to launder. Just ifl»n the collar
flat with one stroke — flip! — and it folds
perfectly because the fold-line’s woven
right into the fabric. And note this!
Van Heusen Century shirts last up to
twice as long as ordinary shirts, yet
they cost no more. $3.95
