Nice ones! All taken Thursday morning, March 3, 1960, at the press conference in Fort Dix, New Jersey. Bodyguards Ken Moore and Lamar Fike are seen in photo one, actress Tina Louise, among others, is swooning in photos three and four.

Thanks a lot, Mississippi and Doc. Great pictures. By the way Elvis really was the most photographed man in the World ?

Probably not. For example, a U.S. president is under constant scrutiny on a near-daily basis.

Elvis really looked like he was going to take over the decade during this press conference. Thin as a rake and handsomer than ten movie stars!

That is really cool! Thank you. A "Certificate of Achievement" dated "from 1 October 1958 to 15 February 1960." How he must have loved it!

I also like seeing that case of Pepsi Cola seen underneath. He loved Pepsi, you know.

Below is a close-up, just for fun, hope this is OK.
