Direct from the collection of Jim E Curtin, the world's most renowned collector of Elvis Presley material, a large collection of eighty-five (x85) 8mm films featuring Elvis in concert at various locales from 1969 through 1976. Many of these films were taken by Jim E himself, and are usually in lengths of 3-to-10 minutes maximum. All movies packaged in manila envelopes with detailed information printed on outside (e.g. Elvis / Lubbock, Texas / Nov. 8th, 1972 / Blue Jumpsuit (Cape Ending) / 40 feet (2½ minutes) / Super-8 Color / About 25 feet of Good Quality). A substantial amount of films from Las Vegas and Honolulu, including his opening night at the Imperial Hotel in Vegas in July of 1969. A half-dozen of the films cover newsreels such as when he was drafted into the Army, his marriage to Priscilla, his funeral, and other Hollywood-related events. Probably the rarest item found here is a film covering 3 minutes and 45 seconds of a 1957 performance featuring Elvis in his famous 'gold lame suit'. Quality ranges (as stated on envelopes) from Fair to Good, with a couple 'bad' reels thrown in to the lot. We have faith in Jim E Curtin's devotion to Elvis that these are ultra-rare and certainly would make a smashing addition to your Elvis collection.




Kann ich absolut nicht bewerten, was meint ihr? Ist das jetzt ne Sensation oder wieder so ne Ente?
