On Christmas day in 1954, rising R&B star Johnny Ace was backstage for a short intermission, and in an effort to prove the gun he was playing with wasn’t loaded, put it to his temple and killed himself instantly. Big Mama Thornton witnessed the accident, saying his hair stood straight up when the gun fired.

A retro Missouri Route 66 shirt celebrating one of the most iconic stretches of the Mother Road. Route 66 runs from Chicago to Santa Monica, cutting across eight states, and Missouri holds some of its most famous miles. The highway rolls straight past the Gateway Arch in St. Louis and through small towns, diners and roadside spots that helped define the classic American road trip. This tee highlights Missouri’s place in that history and is perfect for anyone who loves travel, nostalgia and the open road.
