Description

Elvis Presley Leather Motorcycle Jacket (1960s-70s). As Letitia ("Tish") Henley affirms, she was Elvis' private nurse from 1968 until his death in 1977. Her husband, Tommy Henley, worked security at Graceland, and the couple lived on the grounds from 1974 until 1983. "Elvis wore the jacket casually while he was riding on his motorcycle and personally gave it to my husband, Tommy Henley." The jacket shows wear, but not excessive; however, in storage it has encountered moisture, especially on the back, with evidence of mildew staining; otherwise in Fine condition. Included with the jacket is a small "Elvis Presley" name strip, probably from a previous display of the jacket. LOA from Letitia Henley.
