Movieland´s Elvis Presley Photo Contest

Movieland´s Elvis Presley Photo Contest
Movieland, December 1957

Some rare fan photos here. Can we confirm dates for at least some of them? The home towns of the photographers are a good clue for some photos, I guess.

awesome! love the pic from Kansas City.

#2 appears to be October 13, 1956 at the Houston Coliseum
#3 appears to be Oakland June 3, 56

The others appear to be correct for the hometowns listed except for the obvious Tupelo one and I'm not sure about the one by the girl from Long Beach. Never saw ones of him there dressed other than performance clothes.

Imagine the bunch of photos they must have received. If only we could get all those early fan pics.
