Joe,
The Byron collar style shirt was, and in some cases is still, worn in the recent past. It's the Official's shirt with the solid black collar and the zipper.
The shirt is outdated, as are some of the mechanics used in the old days.
Most officials have gone to the V-neck and updated their mechanics; others use the same "equipment", and mechanics, as they did 20-30 years ago, with the explanation, "...it still works good enough."
