Thread: Need help in identifying fellows in this photo

    Need help in identifying fellows in this photo

    Hi all, I was sent this photo today through one of my other Elvis groups - can any of you identify any of the fellows in this pic - other than Elvis? It looks to be when he was a teenager - maybe some high school chums?

    Thanks Cameron. He sure is young in that pic, that is why I was thinking high school. Also, check the follow out on the left, he is holding Elvis' hand.

    This pic for some reason doesn't look real to me, especially the one with Elvis.

    No one would ever guess from looking at that photo that one of those kids would turn out to be possibly the most handsome man to ever walk the earth....

    Thank you Getlo! I KNEW You'd know it!!!! To the person who said it doesn't look like a real photo of Elvis, it's because of his natural hair color, etc. was sandy brownish.....not the dyed black we are used to.

    Thanks Getlo, I have that picture in black and white that I printed out quite a while ago and always wondered who the other boys were. Elvis looks to be about 15.
