The shoulder seam is actually angled to the back rather than the modern placement of top of the shoulder. The angled seam allows the grain line to come into the shoulder seam on the bias, which allows for a tighter and smoother fit around the shoulder.

Is that true or not?

These are common mistakes that are frequently transferred from modern patterns to CW-era sewing.
