I know there's already a (long) thread where one can post their favorite pictures of Elvis. With this thread I like to focus only on the black and white pictures. Sometimes a black and white picture is more beautifull than the color ones. It's like mono vs stereo
Please post your favorite b&w pictures here and if possible please put some info to go with it. Also I would like to ask everyone to not post more than 3 pictures at a time for better viewing pleasure of this tread.

I'll kick this off with the following pictures:
This 1956 picture captures Elvis in a serious and 'thinking' mood. Reminds me a bit of the '72 On Tour limosine footage !
A great picture of Elvis and Priscilla at their wedding reception on May 1st 1967.
One of my alltime favorite pictures from Aloha From Hawaii. Just beautifull.
When the photographer knows what he/she's doing and b&w pictures are taken at the exact right moment (pose/angle etc.), there's something magical and/or mysterious about them that's missing on majority of colour pictures. ..... I especially like the ones that has some "shadow play" going on... by that I mean kind of like "artsy-fartsy" pictures. I think these two shots illustrate my point perfectly... quite beautiful snaps.
Minneapolis --- May 13th, 1956
Uniondale --- June 23rd, 1973
Yes ! That's exactly what I meant Jouni Beautifull pictures by the way, both are new to my eyes and as a 70's fan I especially like the '73 pic
In the first volumes of the Tunzi books almost all pics are B/W...
Stunning press pics are among them..
Also the Wertheimer collection is outstanding.
But my favorite B/W graced my favorite lp cover..
The contrast is great!!
Thank you Johan, that's indeed a beautifull picture from 1970. Do you happen to have the original picture of this one ?
Hi JohanD and Stefan,
Here is a black and white photo from TTWII.
Sorry about the size I would also like a larger version.
Thanks if you can post a bigger photo.
almost full length here....
Superb !! Thanks Vegas 74
forgive me for the color pics....
50,s shadow pic here Jouni....
I really love Elvis in black and white esspecially pictures from the 50's
Think this might be ok for ya Stefan....and...agreed...fabulous b/w picture
Thanks for that cool 50s picture, Dennis. I think you're right about the date too... it was most likely taken during one of the Florida shows on August 10-11, 1956.
Here's a couple more cool "shadow" pictures... the quality is not the best but I'm sure everyone gets the idea. ..... I bet these would look brilliant straight from the negatives, framed on the wall... especially the first one!
St. Petersburg --- August 7, 1956
Hawaii --- November 17, 1972
Here's also a real classic... I thought I had the original picture but nope... remembered wrong. So if anyone has, feel free to post it.
