Description

Extremely early Elvis ‘bow tie’ publicity photo

Uncommon very early vintage 8 x 9.75 cardstock photo of a young Presley in a jacket and bow tie, from 1954–1955, signed in fountain pen, “Thanks! Elvis Presley.” In very good condition, with a single tack hole to each corner, scattered light creases, and a few faint spots. This portrait was actually Elvis’s first publicity photo, which he produced himself, and would be sold at shows or appearances. Presley photos from this early in his career are seldom-seen and highly prized by collectors. Pre-certified Roger Epperson/REAL and RR Auction COA.
