In 1956 Elvis performed a long run of shows at the New Frontier Hotel in Las Vegas between April 23rd and May 6th. These shows were billed as “Presenting The Atomic Powered Singer”. This 12 page original program was produced and distributed at these and all the remaining United States concerts in the later half of 1956. It is often referred to the “Mr Dynamite Photo Album” in the collecting circuit.
Some Elvis collectors consider this to be the first souvenir “photo album” printed for the King however technically it is the second. Some issues produced have the word “Album” spelled incorrectly as “Albun” this one here does not. Both versions are original printings and this one is the first to solely contain Elvis images (This first “Mr Rhythm” program contained photos of several other acts). The cover exhibits the same iconic photo which graced the cover of his first album on RCA Victor.
