Elvis Now album signed on the front cover in black ballpoint. Impressively matted and framed with its record and a descriptive plaque to an overall size of 33 x 27; the album has been displayed against a stylized background honoring the King's indelible impact on Las Vegas. In fine condition, with significant signature contrast. Accompanied by a letter of provenance from the original recipient, Claude LaLiberte, a highly regarded Elvis collector and former president of the Canadian Spring Fever Elvis Presley Club, in part: "On Monday, February 7, 1971 at the Hilton Hotel…strolling in the hotel casino, I met with Vernon Presley who was playing the $1 slot machine. We had met a couple of times since my arrival in Vegas and he saluted me. We did exchange comments while he was playing. As I had purchased earlier that day Elvis Now…Elvis' latest release on RCA, I took the liberty to ask him if he could suggest me how I could have it autographed by Elvis. Much to my surprise, he told me to get the album and to come back to him. I quickly went to my room…and quickly came back to Elvis' father. We then took the elevator to the top floor. Vernon got inside Elvis' apartments and a few minutes later came back to give me the album with the Elvis signature on it and told me: 'Elvis thanks you and he hopes you'll enjoy his show.'"
