Elvis Presley Screen-Featured Wigs. The legendary Rock and Roll singer-turned-movie star Elvis Presley wore these two dark blonde hand-tied wigs while working at MGM, possibly for Kissing Cousins though the date suggests it was later rented for a subsequent production. The wig # 1300B includes the MGM studio stock card. The wig record card has "Stock No. 1300B", the date "2-11-66", and "original Player: E. Presley" typed on it. There are some pencil note markings as well. Description: Dark Blonde Modern. The wig 1300A includes the original MGM studio cardboard box. The front of the box has been labeled "1300 B, DK. Blonde Modern, E. Presley". Both wigs are made from human hair and are in overall Fine condition. Wig 1300B has the nape extension dated 2-11-66 and has been restyled for photography. The box has been badly moisture-stained and the top cover has a broken corner. The wig box is in Fair condition. The studio card has a 1/2" tear. Otherwise it is in Very Good condition. From The MGM Wig Archive. Estimate: $3,000 - up.

There are a few ageing fans that would love a wig like this to cover up some baldness. Eh Norm!

Possibly for Kissin Cousins but maybe later? When else did Elvis ever wear a wig?

I think that Elton John should buy it, it's a dam site better than his current syrup, or whatever that peculiar item is balancing on his head these days.

ttwiise, no offense taken, but all I can say is that God made so many perfect heads (mine included!). The not-so-good ones He covered with hair so as not to show the deficiencies!!!
