ELVIS AT HOME

Elvis had many homes and furnished them lavishly. The collection includes several items from his best known residence, Graceland in Memphis, together with artifacts from 1174 Hill Crest Drive and 144 Monovale Drive, his homes in Los Angeles.

The Kings love of TV is well documented, not surprisingly three televisions included in the collection; a white cased Magnavox TV from Graceland, a RCA 2000 TV with custom made cabinet from Graceland, the tube of which was once shot out by Elvis but has since been replaced. It also has a plaque reading ‘Limited Edition crafted expressly for Elvis Presley’ and an entertainment center in a solid wood cabinet, from Elvis’ bedroom at his Monovale home.

A low, solid wood Coffee table and a solid wood Credenza, also from Monovale.
