Re: 1956 contact sheets
Another nice find.
These were all likely taken by the same photographer, can't find the name right now. The Vegas shots showed up in the November 1956 issue of DIG magazine. Many later appeared in various other books and such.
The live shots are from the April 28th afternoon show done for the teen-agers who could not otherwise get into the New Frontier. The hotel room shots with Tom Diskin "waking up" Elvis are from Los Angeles on June 6th. Maybe not a session with DIG magazine?
Thanks for the share!
