Elvis Presley Telegram to Young Fan (1957)....

Description

Elvis Presley Telegram to Young Fan (1957). The young fan was Kristen Peterson, daughter of actor Arthur Peterson, a veteran actor of radio and film, perhaps best known as "The Major" on the quirky, cult-classic TV series "Soap". Kristen had a grand dream - to invite Elvis to her birthday party! Elvis was at the height of his pre-ARMY career in early 1957 and had to politely decline the invitation. Kristen's disappointment must have been mitigated somewhat by a telegram from the King of Rock and Roll, with the closing, "All My Love, Elvis Presley"! The 8" x 6" telegram is in Fine condition, with 3/4 inch tear along one of the fold lines. It's been framed to an overall size of 14" x 10.5". THIRD PARTY SHIPPING REQUIRED.
