A gorgeous young man

Absolutely he was! I love to see him very young, my favorite one is leaning against the wall in front of The Eagles Nest club. He is so young, serious and outside, like his momma told him to be when not on stage. That and he was "under age" too. I have a picture of Starla and that picture framed side by side=my two kids...
Thanks Kenya, love to see new pictures of him at any age! wjh

Look at this angel face

Those are all great! Notice that in the "cowboy poseing one" HE is wearing his guns backwards-to be different-maybe he thought they looked better the belt etc:...or just to "be different" and look like he's going to draw leftie or cross arms and draw. A long time back I saw an old black and white western that was really "OLD" and there was a guy who crossed his arms and drew his guns...I wonder if Elvis saw that movie-probably he did! He'd remember that...it was different!
He said he used to get in to see movies for 20 cents and sometimes a dime or he'd "sneak" in sometimes when he could. Then he got to work there- I remember him saying with a lilt on the words- "I got a job there, 'n got to work there 'n see 'em all free!" Still savoring that fact even though he went on to say he got fired etc:...wjh

Yes, good to see these early photo's again... and to see Kenya's beautiful face too! I love your hair! Such lovely, loving eyes you have. I like that picture of him with the cap on sitting on the curb too. He never smiled much in those early pictures...I don't think I've seen more than one or maybe two where he actually was smiling...so serious, or perhaps he didn't want his chipped tooth to show? He said he chipped off one of the front ones, upper and didn't have the $ to get it fixed until he had his first recording out...and "they" got his teeth capped...I don't know for certain who "they" were but it might have been Sam Phillips ??? After all, "they'd" want him looking his best and that smile sure was important to his popularity as well as that pout and snarling lip - huh? My favorite one is the one at the Eagle's nest leaning on the wall. He's lost in thought certainly... maybe having one of those "dreams" he spoke about...the future...making plans and hoping.
