I am thrilled to bits because I have just won a rare opening night menu that I have been after for years.
It just "never" turned up on ebay (or anywere!) until now as far as I know? so i had to go for it!!.....it cost $230 but in the Elvis menu world thats not bad at all. Here are pics of the menu that the seller made, I will post better ones when i get my hands on it.

Congratulations Dennis! I won the exact menu about 8 years ago on there. It cost me back then around 50 dollars if memory serves me correctly

Don't have anything like these in my collection. Would like to, but my cash is almost always taken up with other things. Looks like a really nice item though Dennis. Thanks for posting it (IMG:http://elvis-tkc.com/forum2/style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif)

Thank you guy,s it is great to now have it in my menu collection at last!!
The hardest menu of all to get is the 1973 "Large" menu, ....Only a handful of these menu.s were made for the Maitre,d and the Captains to carry. A few years ago this one turned up on Ebay but I was out-bid on it, I got to know the buyer and some time later he offerd to sell it to me but he wanted more than I could afford at that time!...someone must have bought it and then sold it again! .....yes..on ebay a few weeks ago and I did not know until a friend told me (IMG:http://elvis-tkc.com/forum2/style_emoticons/default/confused.gif) ....it went for $500....man I WAS GUTTED!! (IMG:http://elvis-tkc.com/forum2/style_emoticons/default/crying.gif) Wonder if it will turn up again (IMG:http://elvis-tkc.com/forum2/style_emoticons/default/undecided.gif)

I would like to find this one with the word 'album' spelled 'albun'...I have the one with the correct spelling...
I have multiple copies of several of some of the other ones also...have sold a few over the years...but they don't take up that much room to store anyway...

It took me a while to get these photo albums together, there are five to collect .....six if you count the menu cover, as you can see each one is different and some have the pre print Elvis autograph on the inside back cover but not all of them. The tour photo album has got a add for his box set on the inside cover....
