inscribed in person to Gary Pepper at a banquet held in honor of the Memphis Jaycees Outstanding Young Men of 1970 on January 15-16, 1971. Elvis invited Gary Pepper and Carl Nichols to attend the awards ceremony held at the International Hotel, Las Vegas, wherein the United States Junior Chamber of Congress (The Jaycees) honors ten young men annually for their achievements and community service. All ten young men inscribed their entries to Carl Nichols, who was in charge of Gary's care at that time. Elvis, however, inscribed his entry "To Gary and Carl Nichols Love Elvis Presley." Gary's original place card, with Elvis Presley printed at the top, is laid into the program.
