ITEM DESCRIPTION:
This never-before seen photograph shows the "King of Rock n' Roll" at a press conference in his Sergeant uniform before departing from West Germany, likely in March of 1960. A fearless fan looks directly into the camera while kissing him on the cheek. This rare photograph perfectly embodies the sentiment of the United States in the early 1960's. Popular culture and nationalism collide, perfectly advertised in the courageousness displayed by Elvis' insistence on being treated as a "regular GI" and then rising through the ranks, as well as the young fan brazenly looking into the camera while planting a kiss on his cheek.
Photo Dimensions: 10" x 8", with Frame: 17" x 15"
Elvis Presley is famously known for being the King of Rock n' Roll and an American heartthrob. He enlisted into the U.S. Army in 1958 as a GI and finished his Army career as a Sergeant in 1960. He insisted on having no special treatment during this time, providing a golden opportunity for the United States to promote the army as a decent and heroic thing to do.
