On his way into the hearts and minds of girls everywhere, pop sensation Elvis Presley headlined and autographed this souvenir tour program. With covers and pages intact, the guide showcases Presley's likeness on both the front and back covers, hawking the 21-year-old as country music's "Mr. Rhythm." In graphite pencil, Presley has endorsed his front cover image. Prefaced by his inscription of "Thanks," Presley's autograph projects ("7-8") strength and clarity. Believed to be the first tour program on which Elvis graced the cover, this particular example is free of compacting folds usually found on such items. Minor foxing and discoloration do not affect the powerful signature. Full photo LOA from JSA.
