Don’t Miss It! Huge Elvis Presley Auction Coming This Saturday!

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

If you are an Elvis fan, you don’t want to miss this auction.  You wouldn’t believe the Elvis memorabilia and collectibles that are being auctioned off. Tons and tons of everything Elvis.  If you’re in Minnesota, you can show up personally but if not you can purchase online by proxy bid. (Not sure what that means however if you’re interested, check out the link below to get more information) 

My budget is too skimpy right now to allow me to bid on anything but being at that auction would feel like I’ve died and gone to heaven.  Or possibly overdosed on Elvis in a truly sublime way.  There are some old magazines I’d like to get my hands on particularly.  I’m not a big bobble head fan or stuffed bears but old magazines that feature the King would be so cool to own. 

Oh well, maybe next time but if YOU are in the market to add to your collection, don’t miss this auction.  It’s HUGE!

A New Day Auctions – Over 2,000 items! This is the jackpot of Elvis Presley collectibles in MINT condition- many are in original shipping packages- NEVER OPENED! Most have been in climate controlled storage and never displayed since they were received. 30 years of Elvis Collectibles and Memorabilia to be auctioned! Cookie Jars, coins, stamps, photographs, plates, figurines, lamps, gold records, life-sized cut-outs, mouse pads, welcome mats,and much much more!

Collection Celebrates Elvis’s® 75th Birthday!

pdtl-49091

If you know anything about Elvis, you know that prior to his mother’s death, he flew rarely and usually took the train.  Gladys over worried about Elvis’s safety and always became very fearful whenever he was about to fly so he promised her that whenever he could, he would use the train rather then fly.  Odd but today we know that trains can be just as deadly if not more so but Gladys felt better knowing her boy’s feet never left the ground. Furthermore, the pirate known as Tom Parker was able to travel ahead and promote the pants off Elvis while he was travelling by train from California after filming a movie back home to Memphis. Stories abound about train stops packed to the rafters with fans waiting for a glimpse of their hero, The King of Rock & Roll.

Elvis would have been 75 this coming January had he lived and celebrations will be happening all over the world. It thrills me to no end that we still celebrate events in Elvis’s life despite the fact that he is no longer physically with us. It proves that in fact, Elvis never really left the building. He resides in our hearts. As best I can, I will include all celebration events here.
