The King of Rock and Roll- what is not to love about the music, films and iconic moves of Elvis Presley? The King is seen as one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century and his songs have reached practically every corner of the earth. Just about everything Elvis has ever touched or owned has been, or currently is, for sale. Are you a big fan? Here are some items to give your home a touch of (jailhouse) rock!
1. Records
Every Elvis Presley fan should have at least one of his albums or vinyl records in their home. If you're a really big fan, there is a world full of records to collect: from limited editions to framed ones, to records you can play every single day.
2. Lock of Hair
Most of Elvis’ personal items are now in hands of fans and collectors, but every once in a while you come across an item that brings you a little bit closer to the king himself. An authentic lock of his hair, for example, is a great collector's item; it does not get much more personal than that. Make sure it is accompanied by a letter of authenticity. Framed and sealed, a hair lock makes a fascinating wall decoration that will astonish any visitor!
3. Jukebox
A great way to bring Elvis into your home is with a special Elvis Presley edition jukebox, like the once that are sold on Catawiki Slot & Vending Machine Auction. Filled with hundreds of CDs and decorated with images of Elvis, this unique item surely brings you back in time!
4. In-House Award
What better way to honour the fame and talent of Elvis than with an official in-house award for one of his records. Elvis sold about 600 million units worldwide, making him one of the best-selling solo artists of the 20th century. Every now and again you can find a platinum in-house award on our Elvis Presley auction, so stay alert.
5. Stamp Collection
A handsome, iconic face like Elvis’ does well on about any item from mugs to towels and even postage stamps. Many different kinds of stamps have been created worldwide, depicting Elvis in pretty much every pose and style. A decent collection of stamps in good condition can be quite valuable as well as charming.
6. Hot Wheels
If you like cars and Elvis, there are quite a number miniature Hot Wheels Elvis cars to decorate your house with. A limited edition always does well at an auction and it is a classy way to bring a little Elvis into your home!
7. Autograph
It might not bring his music or good looks to your home, but an authentic Elvis Presley autograph is a must-have for the true fan. A signed photograph, postcard, or just a piece of paper, as long as it comes with a letter of authenticity, is an indispensable addition to your collection.
8. Photos
Perhaps the most interesting Elvis photos to collect are not his publicity shots, but rather the ones that give a glimpse into his life and personality. While playing his guitar at home, while meeting President Richard Nixon, or while taking a swim on a holiday.
9. Art
If you love his handsome looks, a porcelain bust of Elvis is just what you need. To make it extra special, and perhaps a good investment as well, choose one made by a famous artist.
10. Musicbox
A mixture of music, decoration and joy, an Elvis Presley music box really lightens up the room. There are music boxes that show Elvis dancing on a gold record, or Elvis coming out of a Fabergé egg. Some with the sounds of Jailhouse Rock, others with “Can’t Help Falling in Love”. Take your pick!
