It's a fascinating read. Nice to see Elvis included." In overall fine condition, with central vertical folds and expected toning to newspapers. These items originate from the collection of actor Johnny Weissmuller's son-in-law, who notes that "these are the only two papers she personally signed on the death of Elvis."
