This is a new pattern for costume shirts. I was wondering if anyone
can identify view A (lower right corner with the book) and tell me

Apparently, here in England, a shirt like this is sold as a "poet"
shirt. (Not sure which one this refers to, although I think maybe
bottom left - was talking to someone at the weekend about this
pattern but as I wasn't planning on buying, didn't register all of
the info!) I think as the shirt you refer to has a black "stock" it
is likely to be that loose period "Regency" meaning anything from
late 18th to mid 1840's, according to some descriptions I've read.
