The Wide Variety Of Elvis Memorabilia

Friday, March 5th, 2010

Do you feel like you’re caught in a trap, one so strong that you just can’t walk out? Is it because you love Elvis memorabilia too much? I can empathize; my mind doesn’t grow suspicious when you proclaim your love for all things Elvis. I can see what they’re doing to you, and I do believe every word you say. Well you are not alone. Collectibles which have anything to do at all with Elvis Presley have been wildly popular for years. They continue today to captivate collectors and Presley fans from around the world.

The range of memorabilia is wide. From strange to clever to downright expensive, you can find pretty much anything. In 2009, at an auction of a few of Presley’s personal items, a bidder paid over $200,000 for a blue jumpsuit with cape and gold lining which had been worn by Elvis at Madison Square Garden in 1972. A ring of 14K gold and diamonds featuring the face of an owl went for $40,000.

Do not worry; not all collectibles will cost so much. Online auction and retail outlets are great places to look for great bargains on some nice Elvis merchandise. Check regularly as inventory is always changing. Other good places to search are flea markets and yard sales.
