1956

There was filmed a new ending for Love Me Tender at the Junco Studio.
The new scene had a ghostly image hovering over the mourners walking away from the grave. It almost seemed Elvis’ hair was dyed black in this scene.
While during the rest of the film his hair had its natural color.

1957

Elvis performed at the Pan Pacific Auditorium, Los Angeles. His show was filmed by the police, just to make sure it passed scrutiny. After the show Elvis met Ricky Nelson.

  1. The picture of Elvis with Sammy Davis Jr is on the set of ‘King Creole’ 1958. The pic is in between other pics from 1957 at the Pan Pacific Auditorium, Los Angeles. That can be confusing especially for those who aren’t seasoned Elvis fans. Perhaps a note under that particular picture would clarify. Thank You, Thank You Very Much TCB⚡TLC⚡
