#1 - In December 1970, Presley visited the offices of Los Angeles police chief Edward Davis. Stressing the importance of keeping this visit confidential, Elvis presented Davis's department with a check for $7,000 and gave Davis a Colt .45. The money provided toys for needy children in the community, and equipment for department needs. Elvis received some kind of badge from Davis. In the photo he may be hugging one of Davis' assistants.
#2 - Boarding a plane after a 1975 show, taken between July 15 and July 24
#3 - Live at the Omni Coliseum, Wednesday April 30, 1975

Re: info for these 3 ( new ) photos
Aside from Day-By-Day (Gurlanick-Ernst), is there a list of not only his police department visits during the time-window, generally, and along with that, what changed hands. How many checks were made out, for how much, and to whom?drjohncarpenter wrote:#1 - In December 1970, Presley visited the offices of Los Angeles police chief Edward Davis.

Photographs documenting this are cool, too. But I would just like to know the info, straight. As in: the TOTAL sum, during that time, of checks given to police departments. This would be enlightening information. And I'm guessing you know the particulars.
And, aside from Finlator in D.C., was he ever declined? Did anyone say no?
Thanks, in advance!

Paul, looking at the picture of Elvis boarding his plane in July '75 It seems Vernon (seen to the right of Dave Herbler) is wearing the same shirt and jacket as seen in this picture, posted by Scott Hayward in another recent topic, from Asheville, July 24th 1975. This could mean the picture is taken on that same date after the concert.

Looks like it is. I'll take a closer look when I get home and make the change. Thanks!
