Description
This is a Bluescentric Brand authentic Furry Lewis ladies v-neck t shirt, available in 4.2oz 100% airlume combed & ringspun cotton sizes up to 2XL! Athletic heather is 90/10. V-Necks are side-seamed with a set-in coverstitched v-neck.
This is a VERY special & unique Furry Lewis t-shirt that honors & celebrates the life of the iconic delta blues guitarist.

We acquired a one-of-a-kind ~1970s era t-shirt from Furry's own collection, which we used to create this design. It is the art & lettering Lewis himself made for only a tiny amount of shirts. Revived for the first time in decades, this genuine Furry Lewis is available worldwide for the first time ever, exclusively through Bluescentric.

Furry Lewis lived perhaps the most prototypical life of a bluesman in history. 

Born in Greenwood, Mississippi around the turn of the 20th century, he lived mostly in Memphis, Tennessee. Furry forged a well-known practice as a skilled local guitarist, recording dozens of now-classic blues songs in the 1920s. He lost his leg to a train while "riding the blinds" -- hitching a ride underneath a rail car to avoid paying the ticket. "shame of it was, I had enough money for the ticket!" he once recalled about the accident. For years Furry was a street sweeper on Beale St until the folk revival of the 1960s lead to a resurgence of popularity for the guitarist, who toured the world playing his unique brand of blues guitar. 

In his amazing second act, Furry twice opened for the Rolling Stones, got a profile in Playboy, performed on The Tonight Show for Johnny Carson, got a song dedicated to him by Joni Mitchell (which he HATED), and Furry even made a cameo in in a Burt Reynolds movie.

But mostly, Furry played the blues
