"Hawaiian shirts flared into full fashion in the 1950s: President Harry Truman, grinning broadly, appeared on the cover of LIFE wearing a typical eye-popper in 1951. Not long after, the vibrancy of the colors and liveliness of the prints became synonymous with yokeldom and ugly Americanism, what every cartoon American tourist would wear under his camera straps and over his walking shorts, sandals and nylon ankle socks."-From "High, Wide and Hawaiian" by Jay Cocks, Time Magazine, June 3, 1985
