    Southern Made Donut commercial 'found'

    I find this very unlikely and I don't think anything will come of it, but I hope I'm wrong ...

    Elvis made only one commercial in his life on November 6, 1954 for Southern Maid Donuts. This commercial was broadcast during the Louisiana Hayride. Elvis sang the jingle: 'You can get 'em piping hot after four PM, you can get 'em piping hot. Southern Maid Donuts hit the spot, you can get 'em piping hot after four PM'. This commercial has never been released. George Klein recieved a phone call this week in his radio show. The caller claimed that he received the commercial thru an ex-employee from the production company and that is willing to give the commercial to EPE for free, if they arrange a meeting with Lisa-Marie.

    Saturday, November 6, 1954 Municipal Auditorium, Shreveport, LA

    'Louisiana Hayride' broadcast

    Songs: I'm Gonna Sit Right Down And Cry (Over You), Fool, Fool, Fool, Blue Moon Of Kentucky, Sittin' On Top Of The World and the jingle ('Southern Maid Donuts').

    I was thinking the exact same thing! Donut will be so excited to know that Elvis made a commercial about her!

    Hope there is some truth to it Getlo!

    Elvis did sing a jingle for Southern Maid Donuts in 1954.
    It will be interesting to see if someone really does have a recording though since none has been known to exist.

    Franny,

    I think Donut knows about the commercial -

    Donuts? Reminds me of the story when he went to see Nixon. I also read that he advertised for a furniture store in the 50s.

    A year or 2 ago a man called George Klein's radio show saying the exact thing that he had this commercial or knew who had it and the only thing he wanted in return was to meet Lisa Marie Presley.
    George Klein said he didn't know about that and said it would be easier to arrange a meeting with the President (How stupid of him to say that)
    Well nothing ever came of it then and probably won't amount to anything now but you never know.
