Plan to sell Big Bopper's casket online put on hold

January, 14, 2009

A proposal to sell J.P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson's casket through an online auction service has been put on hold, according to the founder of the Texas Musicians Museum, the casket's current location.

Tom Kreason, founder of the Hillsboro museum, said that since the plan was publicized several offers to purchase the casket have been made by other museums. Richardson's family, Kreason said, wants the casket to be acquired by a group that will display it in a dignified manner, respectful to the singer.

Richardson was killed on Feb. 3, 1959 in a plane crash that also killed fellow musicians Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens, a tragedy later labeled "the day the music died."

Richardson's casket was exhumed last year so that his body could be transferred to another location. Kreason said that when a body is exhumed the law requires it be transferred to a new casket. Richardson's family, he said, felt that the old casket, which has been cleaned and sanitized, might have some historic value that is worth preserving as a reminder of the deadly plane crash.
