Heres an article dated for today concerning this exhibit in Brazil posted at Elvis Express radio:
June 01st 2012
THE ELVIS EXPERIENCE - A first of its kind
exhibition outside the US, “The Elvis Experience”
includes over five hundred rare artifacts, documents
and photos, many of which have never left the vaults or
exhibit areas of Elvis Presley’s Graceland in Memphis.

Among the items that will be shipped from Graceland is
his
his signature white suit featured in the closing number of his 1968 television special now
referred to as “The ’68 Special.” One of the most recognizable items traveling from Memphis
to Brazil is one of the American Eagle jumpsuits Elvis used for the 1973 “Aloha from Hawaii”
television special, the world’s first LIVE televised satellite concert.

“Elvis has always maintained a broad international appeal and it is no surprise that there are
thousands of fans across South America and Brazil who continue to embrace his rich
legacy,” commented Priscilla Presley, former wife of the late music icon. “Lisa and I are
happy to be able to share some of these special items that mean so much to us, as they did
to Elvis, and loan them for public display in a country where Elvis is so well-loved.”

This will be a nice building for The King. I can't understand much but I do get the image they are going after.
