The shirt sold by Townsend is a good example, although I believe the collars were generally smaller, closer to a band type collar for the common man. A lot of reenactors make our own. It's a fairly simple procedure, the pattern is all rectangles.
I was there for the 60's as well. My memory may have been dimmed a bit by time, but I was never a big fan of "better living through chemistry". I'll 'fess up to having had a couple of the "Ghillie" style shirts in the closet. One was even velour, heaven help me.
All skill and effort is to no avail when an angel pees down your drones.
