Elvis Presley: Uncovered archives surprise Graceland historian ‘I’ve never heard of this!’


Elvis Presley lived and died at Graceland and in the years since his possessions have been kept in the archives of the Memphis mansion. This year, archivist Angie Marchese has been giving Elvis fans a behind-the-scenes look in her Inside the Archives videos. Posted on Graceland’s official Instagram account, the latest saw the Elvis historian surprised by one particular item uncovered in the archives.

The Elvis history video’s caption read: “Join us as we go Inside The Archives for an exclusive look inside the top-secret facility where Elvis’ personal items are stored.

“In this episode, we’re doing another random unboxing in hopes of finding something fun and epic from Elvis’ history!”

At the start of the video, Angie found a members receipt for the American Guild of Variety Artists.

Collected in Miami and dated October 3, 1956, the piece of history featured Colonel Tom Parker’s Tennessee address on it.

Meanwhile, another of Elvis’ possessions had a connection to his early girlfriend June Juanico.

It was a matchbook from the Buena Vista hotel in Biloxi, Mississippi, presumably from around the mid-1950s when they were dating.

Angie enthused: “Wow! Elvis was in Biloxi on vacation with June Juanico. I wonder if this is where they stayed.”

Finally, the Graceland historian uncovered a very early possession of Elvis’ father Vernon Presley.

Angie showed fans Vernon Presley’s United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America union dues book from 1942.

The item said the initiation fee was $50 and even had Vernon’s birthdate on it of April 10, 1916.

Meanwhile, Graceland was closed for two months during the first lockdown this year but has now reopened.

Last week, the famous Christmas lights were put on during a virtual version of the annual ceremony.

In another video, Angie shared: “Elvis loved Christmas. It was always such a magical time of year here at his beloved home here in Memphis.

“Each year the Graceland staff continues Elvis’ same holiday traditions, such as changing the drapes from blue to red.
