Up For Auction: Stained Pair of Elvis' Drawers

August 28, 2012

Link

A stained pair of Elvis Presley's underwear will be go up for auction in Manchester, England, next month, according to NME.

The light-blue briefs were worn by the King during a performance in 1977 -- the same year Presley died at the age of 42 -- and haven't been washed since. The stain in question is a "suspicious yellow" one "on the front of the crotch."

BBC News is estimating the briefs will sell for roughly £10,000 ($12,503) at the Presley-centric auction on September 8. Additionally, an Elvis-annotated Bible is expected for go for £25,000 ($31,250).

Elvis Presley died on August 16, 1977 at the age of 42 after suffering a heart attack. He is buried in the grounds of Graceland alongside his parents and grandmother. There is also a memorial headstone for his twin, Jesse Garon.

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton

Marlon Jackson also had a twin brother (Brandon) who didn't survive.

Well at least it was a yellow stain instead of a brown one. lol

And who in the HELL would want a pair of drawers from 1977 Elvis? Hell, he was fat and ugly during that era and wearing capes and shit looking like damn Captain Marvel. lol
