I've seen hundreds of Elvis photos and I've never seen this one. I'm just wondering will there ever come a time when I've seen every Elvis photo. I'M Not complaining, just an observation. I wonder if Elvis got tired of having a camera in front of him. I think this is the first photo I've seen of Elvis on another set.
