Having Fun With Elvis Memorabilia

Friday, March 5th, 2010

Do you feel like you’re caught in a trap, one so strong that you just can’t walk out? Is it because you love Elvis memorabilia too much? I can empathize; my mind doesn’t grow suspicious when you proclaim your love for all things Elvis. I can see what they’re doing to you, and I do believe every word you say. Well you are not alone. Collectibles which have anything to do at all with Elvis Presley have been wildly popular for years. They continue today to captivate collectors and Presley fans from around the world.

The gamut of memorabilia runs from the kooky to the esoteric to the sublimely expensive. During a 2009 auction of some of Presley’s personal possessions, the blue jumpsuit and cape with gold lining that Elvis wore during a 1972 performance at Madison Square Garden fetched more than $210,000. A 14KT gold and diamond ring depicting an owl’s face was sold for $40,000.

Do not worry; not all collectibles will cost so much. Online auction and retail outlets are great places to look for great bargains on some nice Elvis merchandise. Check regularly as inventory is always changing. Other good places to search are flea markets and yard sales.
