THE ELVIS PRESLEY MUSEUM COLLECTION: JUNE 18 & 19, 1994 IN LAS VEGAS, SAN FRANCISCO & LOS ANGELES BUTTERFIELD & BUTTERFIELD CATALOG BOOK W/ PRICES REALIZED SHEET
The Elvis Presley Museum Collection, held on June 18 and 19, 1994, was a remarkable event that showcased an extensive array of artifacts related to the King of Rock 'n' Roll. This unique auction featured items that were not only historically significant but also held immense sentimental value for fans and collectors alike. The auction took place in three major cities: Las Vegas, San Francisco, and Los Angeles, each city adding its own unique flair to the proceedings.
This event was organized by Butterfield & Butterfield, a prominent auction house known for its high-profile auctions, and it generated considerable excitement in the Elvis memorabilia community. Among the many offerings were items that captured the essence of Presley’s life and career, reflecting his influence on music, culture, and fashion.
The auction catalog book issued for the event included detailed descriptions of each item, alongside photographs that allowed potential bidders to preview what was on offer. A special prices realized sheet was also provided, which disclosed the final sale prices of items post-auction, providing insight into the market value of Elvis memorabilia at the time.
Among the highlighted items in the collection were:
Stage Costumes: Iconic outfits worn by Elvis during performances, showcasing the elaborate designs and vibrant colors that defined his stage presence.
Rare Records: Vinyl records from early in his career, including first pressings of groundbreaking albums that changed the landscape of music.
Personal Items: Belongings from his private life, such as watches, jewelry, and personal letters that offered a glimpse into his everyday experiences.
Photographs: Candid and formal images capturing both public appearances and intimate moments, illustrating the duality of his life as a superstar and a private individual.
Artwork: Pieces created by Elvis himself, including paintings and drawings, highlighting his artistic talents beyond music.
The significance of the auction extended beyond just the items themselves; it was a celebration of Elvis Presley's enduring legacy. Fans and collectors from around the country gathered to share their admiration for the legendary artist, participating in spirited bidding wars over cherished pieces of music history.
Furthermore, the presence of professional celebrity impersonators and Elvis tribute artists added an exhilarating atmosphere to the event. Many attendees dressed in vintage Elvis-inspired attire, contributing to the nostalgic feel of the auction. This created a unique blend of commerce and fandom, as people were not only interested in acquiring items but also in reliving the magic of Elvis's performances through these communal experiences.
In conclusion, the Elvis Presley Museum Collection auction hosted by Butterfield & Butterfield in 1994 was more than just a sale; it was an unforgettable homage to the life and career of a cultural icon. The wide array of artifacts that were available for bidding served to highlight the immense impact Elvis Presley had, and continues to have, on music and popular culture.

WHAT YOU GET:
This item is for the original media, and includes only the media (ie. CD, floppy ...) UNLESS specifically stated above and/or in the title. If more than just the media is included, it will state which items are (ie. box, manual, etc ). Items that come in a sleeve refer to a generic CD sleeve (typically white) and will be sent with shipping protection to avoid damage during transit. If available, we will also send the front and/or back CD inserts if in stock. If these are important to you, please message us to verify we have them available to send. Please do not assume items are included other than what's stated. Again, ask questions PRIOR to purchasing if you have any concerns.
IMAGES:
All images/pictures are stock photos and are for reference only, mainly to show the type of game you will be getting. Please read "WHAT YOU GET" for what is included with the media. Screenshots may vary based on your own computer system, video card, monitor, etc.
COMPATIBILITY:
Computers are like people, each one is different. Unlike console games, a computer game may install and work flawlessly on one system but may need adjustments on another. This is due to a variety of factors, mainly the OS platform running, video card you have, drivers, protection software installed, etc. Many times manufacturers release updates to games to fix bugs and add enhancements. We would be happy to help get the game going on your computer, but ultimately compatibility issues are the responsibility of the buyer. We suggest going to Google and searching for the name of the game along with the words "system requirements" to determine if your system is suitable. Ultimately, we are not responsible for software compatibility problems or publisher's errors.
PLATFORM:
Stated within the auction is what platform the game will work on (ie. Windows, Mac, Linux...) This is a generic statement and specific platform versions (ie. XP, Vista...) will have to be researched by the buyer. Games that came out PRIOR to XP or higher will not specifically state they will work on that release, but only because they came out before those versions were made. Many, if not most, will work on XP or higher with a few quick adjustments. We provide instructions with all items purchased on how to do this adjustment using the Program Compatibility Wizard. If we find out that an item will definately not work on a specific version, we will state it. For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program if the Program Compatibility Wizard does not work.
64-Bit Windows OS Systems:
For 64-bit Operating Systems, older games most likely will NOT work due to 64-bit systems not being able to run 16-bit programming code (most games prior to 2000). For DOS games, you may need to play it with a free DOSbox program.
Macintosh Systems:
For Macintosh programs, most older games will need to be run in Classic Environment if you have a MAC OS X 10.0 - 10.4 version. Please research Google on how to do this, or send us a message for information prior to purchasing. If your MAC OS system doesn't support Classic Environment (ie. MAC OS X 10.5 or Higher OR Intel Macs), you will have to try running it using the free program called SheepShaver, but compatibility is not ensured. Please research prior to purchasing or ask questions.
MEDIA FORMAT:
Please verify you have the required hardware in order to use the specified media (ie. CD, DVD, floppy drives, etc.) If the item comes as a floppy disc, make sure you have either the needed 3.5" floppy drive or the bigger and older 5.25" floppy drive.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR A SMOOTH PURCHASE:
Ask questions PRIOR to purchasing an order to avoid any confusion.
Be patient if there are problems during installation or gameplay. Typically someone else has
already ran into that problem and has listed a solution online. Contact us and we will do our best to help.
Be sure to update your video card drivers and search for updates to the game from the manufacturer.
