“Call it luck, fate, or a miracle—Marion was there (the day Elvis came to record at Sun) and Sam was not. And she saw Elvis as well as heard him. And so she taped him, and asked him for his name—which she spelled ‘Pressley’—and address and telephone number, and added to his file: “good ballad singer-hold.” And something about Elvis stayed with her. She even found herself telling her mother about him that evening and her mother said, “Oh, I’ve seen that kid on the streetcars. The kid with the sideburns.” Already he had a face people remembered.”
-excerpt from ‘Elvis and Gladys’ by Elaine Dundy

The first letter Elvis sent to his girlfriend Anita Wood from Germany; 1958:
“Dear Little Bitty,
For the first time in a hundred years I’m writing a letter. You can see why I don’t like to write. The reason being I can’t write worth a ???! I just thought of so many things I wanted to say to you and I couldn’t say them on the phone. You’ll never know how much I miss you baby and how much I want to pet you and call you “Widdle Bitty.” Your little picture is by my bed and every night before I go to sleep I always say “goodnight little Pee Pee.” The people over here are very nice and friendly although they are living about 30 years behind us. Don’t quote me. I haven’t dated a single girl since I have been here, the reason being I don’t have time and every time I get out of the hotel I get mobbed. Also I haven’t seen a girl yet that can speak English. You say Hello to one and she says “Luben Slich Ein E P skip skip VON HEIMER Bull Shit!” I want to explain something to you and you have go to trust me and believe me because I’m very sincere when I say it. I will tell you this much. I have never and never will again love anyone like I love you sweetheart. Also I guarantee that when I marry it’ll be Miss “Little Wood Presley.” There is a lot you have to understand though only God knows when the time will be right. So you have got to consider this and love me, trust me, and keep yourself clean and wholesome because that is the one big thing that can determine our lives and happiness together. If you believe me and trust me you will wait for me and our future will be filled with happiness. With God’s help it will work itself out and you will understand and be patient. I worked so hard to build up my career and everything and if you truly love me you would not want anything to happen to it and cause me to be unhappy. No matter what I’m doing, whether it’s the army, making movies, traveling or singing I will be thinking of the time when we will have our first “Little Elvis Presley.” So have this in mind and don’t get discouraged and lonely. Just remember there is a guy that loves you with all his heart and wants to marry you. One more thing honey for goodness sake please don’t let anyone read this and don’t say a word about this letter to anyone. You know how I hate that so be careful baby. If you love me and you are sincere you wouldn’t want to let anyone know our intimate secrets. I better go for now love, so be happy and remember down in your little heart that I love you, love you, love you. Keep writing.
Yours Alone and Forever,
E.P.
P.S. I Love You”

This fringe jumpsuit will always be one of my absolute favorites on him because not only did he look incredible in it he also was so silly he’d get tangled up in the fringe and I will forever laugh at that because he’s just too precious for words and I just want to pick him up and put him in my pocket 🥹

“I remember Elvis as a young man hanging around the Sun Studios. Even then, I knew this kid had a tremendous talent. He was a dynamic young boy. His phraseology, his way of looking at a song, was as unique as Sinatra's. I was a tremendous fan, and had Elvis lived, there would have been no end to his inventiveness." - B.B. King

“While he appears with so-called hillbilly shows, Elvis’ clothes are strictly sharp. His eyes are darkly slumberous, his hair sleekly long, his sideburns low, and there is a lazy, sexy, tough, good-looking manner which bobby soxers like. Not all record stars go over as well on stage as they do on records. Elvis sells.”- Robert Johnson, ‘Memphis Press Scimitar’ 1955

I completely understand why they tried to cancel Elvie in the 1950s, because look at him.
LOOK. AT. HIM.
I can barely handle him in 2022😫
