Elvis - A Lighted Candle

by **Blue Moon** » Tue Jun 03, 2008 5:34 pm

The “Celebrity Auction” of U2’s The Edge (May 31st) was asuccess. Among the successful Elvis items were a gold record he presented to his mother (4250 $US), a signed Hank Snow program (2400 $US), a quote on EP-letterhead (5500 $US), a signed picture (2500 $US), a hat he wore in the sixties (2500 $US), a prescription bottle (2500 $US) and a shirt, with a COA by Ginger Alden. The latter sold for 25.000 $US. The shirt features a large Indian on the back in full headdress, as well as an Indian across each breast of the shirt and at the bicep of each sleeve. It was accompanied by a candid picture of Elvis wearing the shirt.

Well Barb/FairyTale, Ginger Alden was the owner of the above shirt, so one would assume Elvis had given it to her at some point, or perhaps she just simply took it after his death. It auctioned for $25,000.

Yes, I agree, Elvis would have looked good in it. He had that strong artistic personality, so he could carry off all that fancy dressin' very well.

You're right about that! He looked good in just about anything one could come up with and put on him-and they (movies etc:) put him in just about everything they could come up with! I think the one thing I saw on him that surprised me because he didn't look "right" wearing it- not the usually great on him kind of thing...was the shirt he wore in Palm Springs that had reddish and green big flowers- like from Hawaii on a white back ground. They were big flowers with leaves and vines sort of winding over the white- and he had on dark olive pants that looked like they were velvet but could have been brushed cotton (?) the shirt made him look so pale and tired looking, his skin was pale, tauntly stretched looking over his cheek bones with dark circles beneath his eyes. He just looked exhausted and not happy, maybe that was it? Whatever he had just done 31 days in Vegas, had not been up long that day and wasn't adjusted to being off work yet I guess. He was different-personality and the "atmosphere" around him was different... I can't explain it other than to say it didn't feel "right" or something had him unsettled inside and he was dealing with it. I don't know- just remember thinking why would you be wearing that shirt?

How many men can look "cool" in a puffed sleeve yellow shirt?
Not many, but Elvis could pull it off so naturally.
