What Happened To Buddy Holly’s Glasses?
March 1, 2012 It’s been more than 53 years since that plane crash in Iowa that claimed the lives of music stars Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens and the Big Bopper. All 3 along with the pilot were killed instantly and the wreckage stretched nearly 300 yards across a cornfield.
Investigators gathered up the personal effects of all the people aboard. One important thing was missing from the list – Buddy Holly’s distinctive black glasses.
