"I'm
Leavin' lyric-sheet signed by Elvis at The Las Vegas Hilton in 1974"
This comes from Jim Hannaford's private collection. Jim Hannaford has been a staunch supporter of Elvis for many years, promoting him from the early 60's via a well-known and well-organized Elvis fan club.
Jim support continued into the late 60's and throughout the 70's, while running a three-store electronics and record firm. Not only did Jim work closely with the Elvis offices in Culver City, California and Madison, Tennessee, he also worked very closely with RCA Records.
As a way of saying "thanks" to Jim, and in appreciation for his long-time loyalty and work on behalf on Elvis, Tom Diskin would go out of his way to have Elvis autograph various souvenir pictures and other items to send to Jim.

"Follow That Dream Script Used By
Elvis"
This script once belonged to Elvis. I bought this script from Sean O'Neal, who bought it from Colonel Tom Parker's brother-in-law Bitsy Mott. One of Bitsy's jobs had been to hold Elvis' script for him on the movie set.
Synopsis; Heading down south with all their wordly goods, Pop Kwimper (Arthur O’Connell); his son Toby (Elvis) and four stray kids, run out of gas on a deserted brand new but unopened highway. After sleeping overnight on the beach, they discover that their little campout has made them homesteaders and they can legally stay on the land. Other people hear about the place and come to settle. When a couple of mafia-types figure out that none of the authorities can decide who’s responsible for policing Kwimper’s little village, they move in a floating crap game. Heavy gamblers flock to Nick (Simon Oakland) and Carmine’s (Jack Kruschen) trailer-home casino, causing disruption and lowering community standards.
Toby is elected sheriff and tries to keep things peaceful and quiet. After some fights, the bad guys leave and everything seems to have returned to normal. Suddenly a state welfare agent starts investigate the Kwimper family trying to find out about the kids. She starts to seduce Toby but when he isn’t interested, she gets mad, and she files a court order allowing her to take the kids away from Pop for he is an unfit parent.
When Toby and Pop are brought to court they defend themselves so good that the judge dismisses all charges filed against them. At the end, Toby sees Holly as the girl of his dreams.
