Joseph & Porter Barbershop Saloon Shirt
Joseph & Porter Gentlemen's Barbershop Saloon, Mansion House, Nauvoo, Illinois. Open (Until Emma Finds Out): After Porter Rockwell's nine-month imprisonment in Missouri on false charges, the Prophet Joseph Smith allowed Rockwell to stay in his home and establish a temporary bar / barber shop in the Gentlemen's Parlour of the Mansion House until Porter could get back on his feet. This was cut short when the Prophet's wife Emma returned from a furniture buying expedition in Boston. "Joseph, what is the meaning of that bar in this house?" Joseph explained that a new building across the street was planned for Porter Rockwell's bar and barbershop, but until it could be completed Rockwell had set up the bar in the Mansion. "How does it look for the spiritual head of a religious body to be keeping a hotel in which a room is fitted out as a liquor-selling establishment?"  Joseph countered that all hotels had their bars, the arrangement was only temporary, and he wanted to make up for Rockwell's months in prison. Unconvinced, Emma told Joseph he could hire someone to run the Mansion for him. "As for me, I will take my children and go across to the old house and stay there, for I will not have them raised up under such conditions as this arrangement imposes upon us, nor have them mingle with the kind of men who frequent such a place. You are at liberty to make your choice; either that bar goes out of the house, or we will!" Joseph answered, "Very well, Emma; I will have it removed at once." Soon a frame structure, built by Porter, Joseph and several other men designed to house the bar and barbershop rose up across the street. Whiskey Barrel in the centre says: The City Beautiful: Holiness to the Lord At the bottome, a homage to the Masonic Symbol using scissors and a razor.

The Shirt itself is a really nice, high quality material. Its quite thick and the colour is spot on whats in the pictures. The print is 100% what I wanted and the overall product is amazing. I ordered a 2XL which is already pretty big, it came a lot larger than I expected so next time i would order a smaller size, but thats down to me. It came just in time and the staff were super helpful in speeding up the shipping process for me so it would arrive on time. The printing turned out better than i could've imagined. I was very skeptical at first and wasnt sure how it was going to look, but it honestly looks awesome. So happy with it :)
