Exclusive! Elvis...

And now for another blog exclusive (it's a week of new blog characters) Elvis is now in the older you will get house courtesy of cousin Mary Ann who owns this unpublished photo.  She has quite a story to go with it. 

Mary Ann remembers this as happening in the year 1958. Possible as a quick check of history shows Elvis in the Army (He was inducted at Camp Chaffee Arkansas, my Dad discharged from that camp 1946) starting in March of that year with a couple of leave trips home that summer. I bet Elvis got lots of leave. 

Mary Ann worked for the FBI in Memphis. Elvis got a death threat letter. Bet he got lots of those to go with lots of love letters. Two FBI agents were sent to Graceland to investigate. From their reports Elvis was humble and welcoming. He posed for this photo. The agents returned to the office and knowing that Mary Ann was a huge Elvis fan they developed the photo. If you look close between Elvis's legs you can see an autograph. It's faked by one of the agents who wished to pull a fast one on my star struck cousin. Speaking of cousins the guy in the background is Elvis's cousin. I don't know his name. 


Here's cousin Mary Ann on her recent visit to my Mom's house. She has a camera but it's only to make photos of the relatives.  No Elvis appearance on this evening. 

As for exclusive unexpected appearances I guess you have heard of that FBI computer software that looks around out there on the internet to see who is talking about them. The already know I wrote this. They know you read it. Heck for all I know Mary Ann may still work for the FBI. Elvis might still be somewhere getting his photo made. As big as this blog is I would not be surprised by death threats.  

Hope you liked the photo. Guess I'll go to bed. It's all starting to look too connected.
