Extremely attractive pairing of vintage glossy 8 x 9.75 publicity photos of Elvis Presley and his background vocal group The Jordanaires, both signed and inscribed to "Skeeter" in black or fountain pen by all pictured musicians: "To Skeeter, a swell gal, My best to you, Elvis Presley," "Skeeter, You've made this tour the happiest for me, Neal Matthews, Jr.," "SkeeterÂI admire you for more than the fine singing & needless to say it has been fun, Hoyt Hawkins," "Skeeter: My best to two fine little gal singers who are also two fine little ladiesÂHugh Jarrett," and "SkeeterÂyou're one of the sweetest girls I've ever worked withÂGordon Stoker." One member of "The Jordanaires" has added their band name to the photo. Handsomely double-matted and framed to an overall size of 14.75 x 27.5. In fine condition, with slight fading to the Presley signature and trivial creases to edges of photo, and some smudging to a portion of the Hawkins inscription. The recipient of these photos was presumably Skeeter Davis, a country music singer who sang crossover pop music songs including 1962's 'The End of the World.' After starting out as part of the Davis Sisters as a teenager in the late 1940s, she earned a contract with RCA Victor and became a solo star in the late 1950s. She toured alongside Presley, Hank Snow, and The Carter Sisters in 1955 and recounted her friendship with 'the King' in her autobiography, Bus Fare to Kentucky. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from JSA.Format: Signed Photos
