Own a Piece of the King’s Smile: Signed Elvis Presley Picture from “Stay Away, Joe”
Calling all Elvis fans and memorabilia collectors! This is a rare opportunity to acquire a one-of-a-kind piece of Elvis Presley history: a vintage, black and white picture personally signed and inscribed by the King himself.
The Image: A Classic Elvis Smile
The photograph captures a quintessential Elvis moment. Measuring 4.5″ x 6.75″, it depicts Elvis in a scene from his 1967 film “Stay Away, Joe.” Here, the King flashes his signature charismatic smile, complete with a stylish cowboy hat, or Stetson, pulled low across his face.
A Personalized Touch: Signed by “The King” Himself
Elevating this image from a mere photograph to a true collector’s treasure is the inclusion of Elvis Presley’s authentic autograph. Across the picture, in his distinctive handwriting, Elvis has inscribed a heartfelt message: “To Michelle, Best Wishes, Elvis Presley.” This personal touch adds immense value and emotional significance to the piece.
A Glimpse into Elvis Fan Culture
The picture is even more fascinating thanks to its unique origin. It’s a clipped image from a magazine published by the Elvis Presley Fan Club (UK). The article on the reverse, titled “No Return To The ’60’s” by Stewart Robertson, discusses RCA’s handling of Elvis’s music releases, specifically mentioning the new single “Until It’s Time for You to Go /We Can Make the Morning.” This detail helps to date the autograph to sometime after 1972.
The King and His Devoted Fans
The presence of the magazine clipping suggests the picture was likely obtained by Michelle during one of the many trips organized by the Elvis Presley Fan Club (UK) throughout the 1970s. These dedicated fan club excursions allowed devoted followers from the UK to travel to the United States and witness Elvis perform live. Imagine the thrill of meeting the King in person and receiving such a personalized autograph!
The Legacy of the King
Born in 1935 in Tupelo, Mississippi, Elvis Presley (1935-1977) needs little introduction. He revolutionized popular music, becoming a global phenomenon and cultural icon. His influence on rock and roll, rhythm and blues, and country music remains undeniable. With his captivating stage presence, electrifying music, and undeniable charisma, Elvis Presley earned the moniker “The King of Rock and Roll.”
Owning a Piece of History
This signed picture is more than just a photograph; it’s a tangible connection to Elvis Presley, the music legend, and the devoted fan culture he inspired. It represents a moment in time, capturing Elvis’s iconic smile and offering a glimpse into the dedication of his international fanbase. Whether you’re a die-hard Elvis fan or a collector of music memorabilia, this signed picture is a rare and valuable piece you won’t want to miss.
