The Auction at Graceland Elvis memorabilia January 7th 2017


Once again, The Auction at Graceland is on with a collection of very unique and rare Elvis artifacts and memorabilia up for grabs.

The Auction At Graceland, which starts at 2:00 PM CST on the 7th, has more special Elvis items than ever! Elvis was involved in so many different pursuits and his life touched so many people that there are many important items still left at the Graceland estate for auction. With the help of Invaluable, fans have the chance to own part of his legacy.

 Here are a few lots to check out: 

Lot 61: Elvis Presley Gold and Diamond Ring


















Estimated Price: $10,000 - $15,000

The offered ring emanates from Charlie Hodge. It was purchased in the early 1980's along with 11 other rings and the original box in which Elvis kept them when he gave them to Charlie.

Lot 126: Elvis Presley and Priscilla Presley Signed Divorce Document


Estimated Price: $5,000 - $7,000

Their love was legendary and their parting was amiable, as evidenced in this one-page Supplement to Property Settlement Agreement in which assets are divided. According to the document, Priscilla is to receive $100,000 tax-free and should any claim be made against this sum, Elvis has agreed to be liable. This agreement is dated August 15, 1972, and framed with two images of Elvis and Priscilla leaving the Santa Monica courthouse the day their divorce was final.


Lot 62: Elvis Presley Film Worn Boxing Gloves

Elvis Merchandise Auction at Graceland January 7th 2016




This auction, The Auction at Graceland, starts at 7:00 PM CST on the 7th. To honor the memory of his great talent, INVALUABLE.COM are pleased to announce the opportunity to participate in the upcoming Auction at Graceland. This is the third Elvis auction held since last year. Elvis sang his way into the hearts of fans and his light continues to shine in the hearts of collectors and fans everywhere. His legacy lives on, and what better way to continue that than owning a piece of his history!

Here are a few lots for example:

Lot 24: Elvis Presley Stage-Used Guitar from January 14, 1973 "Aloha from Hawaii" Concert
Estimated Price: $300,000 - $500,000
This guitar, the Ebony Dove, was the most photographed and widely seen of any of Elvis’ guitars as he played it during the January 1973 Aloha from Hawaii via Satellite concert broadcast. This very guitar made it into the homes of nearly a billion fans around the world via television and is his most used guitar. The guitar show heavy stage use, with many scratches and scuffing on the reverse from Elvis' belts and jumpsuits.



Lot 31: 1958 Elvis Presley Handwritten Two-Page Letter to Alan Fortas
Estimated Price: $30,000 - $50,000
Widely respected for his service in the Armed Forces, Elvis was enlisted as a private in the Army and was stationed in Germany during his tour. Despite all the smiles we see in publicity photos of Elvis in uniform and the attention paid to the celebrated private, he was treated much like any other enlisted man, and as such his duties were not always enjoyable. This amazing two-page handwritten letter from 1958 is a true glimpse into the mind of Elvis during his time in Germany, as he pens his thoughts to his friend Alan Fortas. Signed “Your Pal, Elvis Presley,” and comes in original envelope.



Lot 85: April 5, 1972 Complete Elvis Presley Concert Film from the Memorial Auditorium Show in Buffalo, NY
Estimated Price: $25,000 - $35,000
Recorded only four days prior to filming Elvis on Tour, director Robert Abel captured Elvis Presley’s concert on April 5, 1972, at the Memorial Auditorium in Buffalo, NY. The performance captured an artist in complete command of his form, with Elvis at the peak of his singing and onstage abilities. Highlights include a 5+ minute rousing rendition of “Suspicious Minds,” a spot-on “Lawdy Miss Clawdy,” and a moment when Elvis has the lights turned up in the arena to see the crowd just as, right in front of the camera, we catch a glimpse of a security guard stopping an eager fan from charging the stage.

This auction, The Auction At Graceland, starts at 7:00 PM CST on the 13th. 

Elvis touched the hearts and lives of fans across the globe, and the goal for the Elvis Week 2015 Auction at Graceland is to include artifacts from across the spectrum of collecting, including items owned by Elvis, gifted by Elvis, written by Elvis, used by Elvis and created to promote the king and his career.

Lot 118: September 11, 1970 Elvis Presley "In Person" Concert Poster



Estimated Price: $4,000 - $6,000
Used to promote stops on Elvis Presley's September 1970 tour, these venue-specific posters are few and far between, especially in such an exemplary state of preservation. In true Colonel style, the upper portion, graced by Elvis' iconic portrait, was kept purposely generic and was printed on lighter weight paper in greater quantities. These could be used or sold anywhere Elvis was touring.

Lot 112: 1970 Elvis Presley Signed Oversized Concert Souvenir Photo




Estimated Price: $2,000 - $4,000
This rare 1970 promotional photo has been signed by Elvis "To Diane Best Wishes Elvis Presley." Always the conscientious singer, Elvis saw fit to find the lightest area of the photo leaving a very readable result.
