Some very interesting photos and info on the link.

Why they did not open the Elvis museum till 1992 speaks volumes.

Becky sent us this photo. She was often interviewed by TV people even a Documentary making team from Ireland in 2002. Sadly she is no longer with us to see how Tupelo is gearing up for more Elvis related tourism.

Thanks maurice that was intresting, it just shows you from the pics how time has changed over the years.

Yes Elvislady it's good to get a feel for the place where young Elvis spent his formative years.
