In October, Viva Cuba introduced the white t-shirt that featured the vintage Highway Patrol Car pictured in one of the History at the Way murals at the intersection of Route 66 and Hwy. 19. The murals are located on the historic Phillips 66 Station at the intersection. The shirt went on sale at the Visitor Center at the I-44 overpass, and it was so popular that some of the sizes have sold out . If you want one of the few remaining white shirts, purchase them soon.
The white shirts are selling out quickly.
Viva Cuba is happy to introduce the second edition of the shirt with the mural panel by Route 66 artist Ray Harvey printed on a black 50/50 cotton/polyester blend. The black shirt is available at the Visitor Center in sizes L, and XL. Viva Cuba will order other sizes as the white shirts sell out . The design really pops on the black shirt. In this version of the shirt, the historic landmark Wagon Wheel Motel can be seen in the background of the mural.

If you are looking for a Valentine’s Day gift , this might be just what you need. It’s got a cool car and a little bit of Route 66 history.
- The Vintage Highway Patrol Car is featured in one of the murals on the restored Phillips 66 Station.
For more history of this mural, read “Cuba, Missouri says good by to long-time trooper and a piece of our history” and “Historic Route 66 intersection an important presence in Cuba, Missouri.”
- The Wallis family restored the classic Route 66 Station to preserve a piece of Cuba’s history and honor Bill Wallis, founder of Wallis Companies, who passed away in 2001.
Those are great pictures of the real murals in Cuba. I will soon be receiving soon in the mail. Love em!
Your shirts are in the mail to Florida Shirley. Thanks for your loyalty to Cuba.
