1975                         metal backstage pass

Another backstage pass from the collection of Joe Esposito. This very hard to find metal badge (2¹/3 ”) was used in the mid 70´s by Elvis´ assistants and security. The show members placed their name cards behind the clear plastic window and clipped the badge to their shirts or jackets. This pretty heavy backstage-badge might have been in use. A true collectible. Looking great when framed.
Value: 150 - 200 US$

Highly sought after ticket stub from Elvis´ very first New Year´s Eve performance. Elvis usually celebrated new year with his friends and family in Memphis. This premier took place at the Pontiac Stadium. During the show, while doing some of his karate acts, Elvis ripped of his pants and left the stage to change the jumpsuit. Elvis even performed a rare line of Wooden Heart. As you can see, the ticket was once folded in the middle and later glued onto a paper ground, but nevertheless this is still a highly collectable piece of a legendary performance.
Value: 300 - 400 US$

This original mimeographical mass-duplicated schedule for the tour starting in Johnson City on March 17th and closing in St. Louis on March 22nd, 1976 was mailed from Parker’s office in Madison. The Colonel had made such schedules to promote upcoming tours and engagements. With only a few exceptions, these were all pretty simple styled. Also announced, is Elvis’ engagement at the Sahara Tohoe Hotel from April 30th thru May 9th and his latest single Hurt / From The Heart (sic). Today, these tour schedules are rarely seen and highly collectable, but such easy to fake collectibles should solely be acquired from reliable dealers or collectors.
Value: 50 - 75 US$   (schedule only)
Value: 75 - 110 US$ (schedule with envelope)

1977                         Tour Photo Album

This photo album (Volume Seven) was sold while on tour in 1977. As the now famous golden tour book would have been offered the first time with the beginning of his August 1977 tour and therefore never was sold during Elvis lifetime, this edition has to be the final tour photo album. The album has a copyright by All Star Shows. It contains 28 pages with full sized colour photos of Elvis on stage and a double-sided advertisement for the Las Vegas Hilton Hotel, even though there was no such engagement since December 1976.
Value: 70 - 85 US$

06/26/1977               Indianapolis, Indiana

Rare ticket stub from Elvis´ concert at the Market Square Arena in Indianapolis. This was Elvis´ final performance and without doubt the best show of the whole tour. The CBS TV Special was also filmed during this tour. These tickets are highly sought after, as they are the last true collectibles of Elvis´ legendary concert career.
Value : 175 - 250 US$
