Wedding Ring Designed And Bought By Elvis Presley 1970s

[presley31]

A ring designed by Elvis and Marty Lacker is being sold on eBay. The ring became the possession of Patsy Lacker, Marty's former wife. From the eBay listing: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=260436498603

'One night in the 70's when he and Elvis were in Elvis' upstairs Graceland office, they began talking about marriages including the fact that Marty served as Elvis' co-Best Man at his wedding to Priscilla. The conversation got around to things they did for their wives and Marty told Elvis about his promise to Patsy regarding the wedding ring.

Much to Marty's surprise Elvis said,"That's great, let's design one for her and have it made." Marty thought Elvis was kidding at first but Elvis made it clear he was serious. So for about an hour Marty would sketch the suggestions Elvis made as well as including some ideas of his own. They came up with a beautiful wide, white gold thick ring with stones on the top left and the bottom right. It is an unusual wide ring for a wedding band but then Elvis liked unuusal things.'

If it comes with a video of him and Elvis talking about it and Elvis giving him the check to pay for it - then I would believe it.

It is not so unbelievable that Elvis would do this. He was a very
generouos man, according to all accounts I have heard and read.

I just looked at this and I remembered something....

This is the same member that was selling the certificates to be an "honorary" member of the "TCB" club!! Remember how we discussed for days how awful that was??

JJ was good enough to make one for me!

Actually, it is true.

[hounddog]

i thought white gold looked more silver than gold? To me this looks like a (yellow) gold ring

Almost everyone that Elvis ever gave things to has sold some of it, how is this different?? That's the part I don't get.
I don't care for the design but the part of it representing Elvis's sweet generosity to me hold value.
