Cool Elvis shirt

If this is in the wrong area please just move it where it goes.
Just posting it here for perhaps some that may haven't seen it.
This video is an interview with Conan O'brien and Billy bob Thorton.

When I first watched it, I noticed something really cool, and that is he is wearing an Elvis shirt I had never seen before.

At first I thought it was some kind of bowling shirt, but it's probably meant as a tribute to Elvis' job at Crown Electric. A similar shirt is sold at the graceland.com store (see: https://store.graceland.com/products/el ... 5987776001) I don't know if Elvis' work shirt actually looked like this, but the logo doesn't seem authentic to me. The crown on the Jeep truck that Elvis drove definitely looked different (see: scottymoore.net)

There are some pictures of stars and starlets wearing even cooler Elvis shirts. For example, the famous "Lupo's Heartbreak Hotel" t-shirt, e.g. worn by Johnny Ramone & Joey Ramone (Ramones), Joe Strummer (The Clash) & Mike Mills (REM)... (see links for pictures)
