A promotional Elvis Presley King Creole (Paramount Pictures, 1958) card signed "Elvis Presley" on verso in blue ink, and a lock of Presley's hair affixed to the front of the card with a laminate. The hair was obtained by a child in Germany whose father oversaw Presley in the army. On the day the troups got their hair cut, the young man snagged a lock of hair from the sheet covering Presley's uniform, drawing a laugh from both Presley and the barber. The card was laminated with help from the boy's mother and the next day in the mess hall the boy had Presley sign the card. 3 1/2 by 2 3/4 inches Categories: Elvis Presley
