Personally, I don’t like seeing Elvis suits going into personal collections. I would prefer to keep them at Graceland for generations to see and enjoy.

I don't know if it would be possible, but if I was the buyer I would ask the EPE to keep it for me at Graceland, pretty much like my money in a bank account. It would be safe for my "investment" and generous by allowing Graceland visitors to see it.

I wonder who says that this or this will be auctioned. Is it Lisa Marie ? If so it is in my opinion not okay that the auctioned this things belonging to Elvis, her dad. This jumpsuit should belong to Graceland.

These large items are from an Auction Graceland held in 1994. They were auctioned from Graceland itself, not cosigners. Lisa is well aware they were auctioned. The reality is, she didn’t care much. I’m sure if you had 300-500k to pay for the jumpsuit, you wouldn’t prefer it being in a glass at Graceland. You’d be dancing around your house in it. Just saying.
