On October 18, an auction house will be auctioning off some of Elvis Presley's hair. Is this appropriate? Would you be interested?

I'm actually going to go with utterly ridiculous, so no I wouldn't be interested. What are they going to clone Elvis? XD.

I'd love to have some of his hair to give to my ex fiance, whom I believe his daughter more than even she does her self. She was married to my friend, Christian Brando, and is trying is suing the Brando Estate now as she stands in his shoes...but she has lied to me so much, and we are not getting married. Her name is Deborah Delaine and goes by the last names of both Presley and Brando.

She told me she tried to get some of Lisa Marie's hair out of her head at the Club Lingere, but could not get close enough. She's needs DNA to prove who she is, but she'll be a decietful liar regardless.

Have no idea who he is, but hair is a simple byproduct, it can be easily replicated, so I'm not sure why its appropriate or not. People collect weird things, period.

I am certainly not interested. Elvis was before my generation - and even if he wasn't, the idea of paying money for any dead person's hair gives me the creeps. As to whether the sale is appropriate...I can see both sides of the argument.

On the one hand, selling a dead celebrity's hair or other body parts seems very uncouth and rather gross. It seems to exemplify our celebrity obsessed culture in the worst possible way. However, Elvis also has a legion of dedicated fans who might not feel the same way about having his old hair.

For one of them, the hair might give them some sense of happiness and a feeling of connection with their idol that means more than I might understand. Also, if it was his cape or a pair of shoes that was being sold off, no one would think twice. For his fans, his hair is just another aspect of the things that made Elvis "the King".

“Elvis was known for gifting TCB (“Taking Care of Business”) necklaces to the men of his entourage and TLC (“Tender Loving Care”) to the women in his life. The offered necklace was one of only two of these necklaces made by a Beverly Hills jeweler for Elvis and this example was gifted by Elvis to Barbara Klein, wife of George, who was a member of Elvis’ entourage. The lightning bolt affixed to the TLC is marked “14k” on the reverse and the pendant is connected to a gold rope chain.

The pre-auction estimate sounded like a bargain at $1,500-2,000, but it turned out to be embarrassingly low. This film had 36 bids, more than any other item, and it topped out at $11,875. I hope the buyer puts it on a DVD and markets it, because that means someday it will be on YouTube.

I would love to see footage of Elvis performing in 1957. And all those screaming fans. “Offered is a 16MM reel of Elvis Presley in Chicago in 1957.

The film contains black-and-white footage of the end of Elvis’ concert in Chicago and is 5 minutes 15 seconds in length. Elvis, wearing a gold lamé suit, is singing to a packed house in the first 15 seconds of the film and then again for an additional 23 seconds around minute 1. The remainder of the film documents the phenomena of the physical reactions of fans to the King of Rock and Roll.

The film pans to the first aid area of the arena and features a girl who fainted being whisked to first aid and revived by police.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
