Description of Everything Elvis:
Few Elvis fans take their devotion to the King more seriously than Joni Mabe. She divides her life into two parts: pre- and post-Elvis's death. On August 16, 1977, Mabe realized the depth of Elvis's impact on her heart and mind, and she turned her artist's skill and eye to commemorating all that was--and is--the legend of Elvis Presley. In Everything Elvis, she acts as curator to her impressive collection of Elvis memorabilia, amassed over the past two decades. The pages are filled with images such as the official Elvis prayer rug, a wart removed from the King's foot in 1958, 8-tracks from the '70s, an Elvis car shrine, tickets to a 1976 concert, and some of Mabe's own Elvis creations. The lush color photos are accompanied by a chronology of Elvis's life after his death, making the book itself an essential piece of Elvis memorabilia.
