I want a velvet Elvis so bad I can’t see straight but NOT for $100.00, so taking this picture was the next best thing. Taken at our local flea market in Wellfleet.

Elvis and velvet were bornto go together but you need a kitschier Elvis than that. And for way less than 100 clams. Trust me, they’re around. Cute photo though!

Fantastic Denny!!!! My no-nonsense, no-clutter anywhere cousin has a velvet Elvis in her garage.. chubby, crying, Vegas Elvis. It is so out of sync with the rest of her household, I haven’t had the courage to ask her why she has it.

gorgeous phot and wow, that’s a big one, but I agree; you need a kitschier one! And for 100 bucks, wtf! That’s not even in the sprit of good kitsch! Plus, he looks a little too much like Ricky Nelson…Nessa…a crying Elvis!?! Maybe you should NEVER ask!

Only get one if it’s “Hencho en Mexico”. Make sure it has a tear drop too.

Funny thing, I picked this up for my friend Mark (and my tattoo guru) who promptly paid me back. He plucked down the cash. I would never have spent $100.00 on this.
What sucks is that I saw the same one for $30.00 on ebay. Flea market vendors think they are selling gold sometimes.
