ABSTRACT:
A garment, such as shirt, having a piece of material which may be of the same material as the shirt fastened along an upper edge to the front panel of the shirt so as to form a flap which normally hangs from about a mid-portion of the front panel. The fastening line provides a horizontal hinge line, and when hanging in the normal position, the flap covers the outer surface of the lower portion of the front panel of the shirt. The outer surface of the flap together with the outer surface of the front panel of the shirt above the hinge line form a first display area. When the flap is held in a raised position, the inside surface of the flap together with the outer surface of the lower surface of the front panel form a second display area. A first part of a message or information is presented on the first display area and a sequel part of the message or information is provided on the second display area. Thus, the garment forms a novelty shirt in that after a person sees the first message, while the second message remains hidden, the wearer or the other person may lift the flap to a raised position to let the person see the second part of the message.
