For some reason I thought the top three images were taken Nov/70 in San Fransico, though I'm probably wrong.

Hey man, if you can follow that theory up, by all means, do so! Any creative input, is always appreciative! Get back to me, okay! Cheers! Thanks for the reply!

I once read a lenghty story about the Mobile candids told by one of the fans in the photos. I can't find it now. Anyone know what I am talking about? But I actually remember the location to be Las Vegas. The girls getting invited up to the suite. And somebody saying, that no photos could be taken, but Elvis posed with them anyway.

Melanie, I remember reading the same article, I wish I could find it. Funkman, I will try to find out where I've seen that info about those pictures.

I stand corrected, according to the book Elvis a Celebration, the top photos look like Phoenix, Sept 9/1970, though the photo's are in b/w in the book.

According to Bud Glass' Behind The Image Vol II the top three photos should be from Los Angeles July 9, 1970 as Elvis chartered a jet to take him to Las Vegas.

His hair and sideburns are too long for July.

Yes, these pictures are after July of 1970.

I'm wrong on both counts, in Elvis a Celebration photo, EP has a shirt on ( I can't believe I missed that)

with what looks like the black karate gi from 69, the top at least, and Parker doesn't have anything in his top pocket. One thing about it, our guy looked great in all of the photo's!

I always thought that these represented Presley's arrival in Phoenix!


And the following in Detroit, September 11th!


I'm fully aware that #2/ #3 are the same shot!

You're right Funky. The third picture on the right is the one that's in the book.

Is it possible that the picture of Elvis in the blue two-piece were taken not on arrival but on departure. On one of the pics I see Joe coming out of the car with a brief case.

Great pics! Thanks!

Yeah, those upper three photos are definitely from Phoenix. In my copy of the third photo you can see a Airport car with the city name Phoenix on the door.

Then would this mean that the images are from Elvis' departure (10th September) from Phoenix, enroute to St. Louis!

Those are great photos. I love looking at him.
Was Parker always present during his arrivals ?
Why are Diamond Joe and the other guy (is that Jerry Schilling?) wearing the same model sunglasses ?

Yes Funky, those last three photos are Elvis leaving for Phoenix on September 9, 1970.
And those other are then from his arrival in Phoenix later in the day.
