It’s no secret that Original Elvis Presley handbills produced during his lifetime in the 1950’s and 1960’s have an established historic value to collectors. We rarely come across material produced before the concerts took place like this gem here. In March of 1961 The King performed a charity concert at Bloch Arena in Pearl Harbor which also featured the Jordanaires and Minnie Pearl of the Grand Ole Opry. 100 percent of the $62 000 in proceeds were donated to the USS Arizona Memorial Fund. This concert was Elvis' last non-movie performance until his 1968 TV special.
