Tuesday, February 4, 1958. Elvis was on the set of King Creole with a small fan, on the set of Paramount. The little boy would appear with Elvis in the cover photo of the book “Elvis a Humanitarian” By Paul Belard, and once again he shows us the most humanitarian side of Elvis, and the affection for his fans, which is always inspiring of deep tenderness.
The look between them speaks for itself.
On the cover of the book, we see Elvis signing a copy of his single, Teddy Bear, for the young fan, smartly dressed in a two-piece suit, on the set of King Creole.
Elvis once said, “I could never get rich enough to forget what it’s like to be poor.”
These words always represented his feeling of love and generosity towards others.
Paul Belard in this book presents each of Elvis’s acts of kindness and charity in chronological order, up to the establishment of the “Elvis Presley Memorial Trauma Center” in Memphis, in 1983.
