Los Angeles, July 2 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Elvis Priestley has been dead for many years but his legacy still lives on. Pictures of the dead star, which were taken more than 50 years ago, have been discovered by a team, that went through the dead superstar’s archives.
These photos were found when a team of archivists went through the tons of documents belonging to the late singer at the offices of Vernom Priestley, who was the father of Elvis.
Angie Marchese who is the archives director of Elvis Presley Enterprises said that the negatives of the photos were found in a neat envelope, without any inscription on it and these photos have never been published.
There is also a fourth photo that has been published a few times. Research showed that the singer took the photos in 1957, around the time when his hit song “All Shook Up” was topping the charts. He was 22 years at the time and he wore a black pompadour, jacket and long pants. There were fans around and he seemed to have been signing something.
Fans will be able to see the photos on the 16th of August at the end of Elvis week at the singer’s Graceland estates.
