Description

The King’s first Sun Records publicity photo, circa 1955

Handsome vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of Elvis in a suit and tie with his classic pompadour haircut, signed circa 1955 in ink, “Yours, Elvis Presley.” In very good condition, with overall surface bends and creases, some scattered irregular spotting (noticeably to his chin), and the signature very light but legible. Taken on December 27, 1954, this now-iconic image was Elvis’s first Sun Records publicity photo. A fantastic early piece from the very start of the King’s career. Pre-certified REAL.
