erry Schilling: Well, you know when I first went to work for Elvis back in ’64, it was a screened-in porch. And Elvis had it converted to like a den, where we used to watch football games. And one day, Vernon Presley, his father, came back and said, ‘Elvis, I just saw the ugliest furniture in the world at the goldsmith’s, or somewhere’. Elvis went and bought it and here we are, the Jungle Room.

But thanks to its unique, exotic décor, the room became known as the Jungle Room after Graceland opened to the public.
