The Birthplace is one of the t...moreop attractions in the state of Mississippi. The home that is being offered at auction is NOT THE BIRTHPLACE, and is located at: 1330 Hankins St Tupelo, MS 38804. According to a Presley family member's affidavit, the home was one of the homes built by Vernon and Vestor Presley for Presley family members in the late 1920's-1930's. This home was originally located in the vicinity of what is now known as the "Birthplace Museum," and moved to its current location up the road in, or around 1942 (according to a family member affidavit). It was also mentioned in the affidavit that Elvis and his mother Gladys 'lived in the home for a time.' This property is next to Lawhorn Elementary school, which is the school Elvis attended as a small child. The area that this land and property are located in what is officially known as "Elvis Presley Heights". The modest home will also be sold with 16.5 acres located near the home at 1601 Fans Forever Drive. A Presley family member says that Elvis played on this land, hunted and used to swim in the creek there, as a child.

This lot is subject to a 23% online buyer's premium, and a 15% onsite buyer's premium. For assistance with registration, or for more information, please contact our lead auctioneer at: 702-580-3364.

This plane was sold in May of 2017 to a very loyal Elvis Presley fan. He called our auction firm, and said he would like to "sell it again", because he is almost 80 years old, and wants to see it be fully restored for the world to see. He said "He got really excited on auction day, and now he wants to see it go to a good home." The winning bidder will receive a letter of ownership from the previous owner, the complete set of FAA "Blue Ribbon Certified" documents and a letter of ownership from the current owner that purchased the jet in May of 2017.

Whitney Houston Schimmel Plexiglass Custom Piano

Lot # 6A (Sale Order: 11 of 156)

Whitney Houston's Schimmel Plexiglass Custom Piano & Tufted Matching Piano Bench - This one of a kind piano was made by Schimmel exclusively for Whitney Houston. This piano was originally acquired from the Nippy, Inc (Whitney Houston's company) unpaid storage unit auction conducted by AJ Willner Auctions in New Jersey in 2007. It is said that this was Whitney's favorite piano, and she had a matching coffee table and chairs made of glass to go with it (which is offered in the next lot). This piano was featured on the TV show "Beverly Hills Pawn" that is on the REELZ channel. Yosi Dina, the pawnshop owner offered $500,000 for the piano, and our seller did not make a deal with him on the show, as he wishes to try his chances at auction. This is an iconic piece of music memorabilia that truly belongs in a museum, or in a private collection. Born on August 9, 1963 in Newark, New Jersey, Whitney Houston almost seemed destined from birth to become a singer. Her mother Cissy Houston, cousin Dionne Warwick and godmother Aretha Franklin were all legendary figures in American gospel, soul and pop music, and were great inspirations for Whitney's music. She began singing in the choir at her church, The New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, as a young child and by the age of 15 was singing backing vocals professionally with her mother on Chaka Khan's 1978 hit, 'I'm Every Woman'. She went on to provide backing vocals for Lou Rawls, Jermaine Jackson and her own mother and worked briefly as a model, appearing on the cover of 'Seventeen' magazine in 1981. Her career was honored with 2 Emmy awards, 6 People's Choice awards, 6 Grammy awards and 22 American Music Awards, just to name a few. Her music will live on for generations, and she will forever be a music industry icon, and the Queen of Pop. Whitney Houston tragically passed away in 2012, and her death was followed by the then tragic passing of her only child in 2015. This is a true masterpiece, and is considered to be one of the most valuable pianos in the entire world by collectors worldwide. This piano was made exclusively for Ms. Houston by Schimmel, and this is the only piano belonging to Ms. Houston that is currently for sale in the entire world. This piece comes from the collection of "Treasure King" Richie Marcello. Larger-than-life collector Richie Marcello, also knows as the "Treasure King" scours the globe to buy and sell some of the world's most highly sought after museum-caliber treasures and rare Hollywood memorabilia many believed to be lost forever. He has been featured on REELZ in his own television show, as well as "Beverly Hills Pawn", and other television shows. VIEW MORE PICTURES

This evening gown was originally acquired from the Nippy, Inc (Whitney Houston's company) unpaid storage unit auction conducted by AJ Willner Auctions in New Jersey in 2007. The gown is a full length, velvet turtleneck evening dress, with mesh sleeves embellished with applied crystal buttons. The mesh continues around the back of the dress to display an open back, which adds just the right amount of sultriness. The gown is also embellished with a built in beaded crystal "necklace", which finishes the piece beautifully. There is no label present, as celebrities would often cut out the labels so that the piece would be more difficult to be attributed to them. This is a gorgeous piece of music memorabilia that truly belongs in a museum, or in a private collection.

Elvis Presley Fence Board From "Circle G Ranch"

Lot # 10 (Sale Order: 20 of 156)

Elvis Presley Wooden Fence Board From The Fence at His "Circle G Ranch" W/Signed Letter of Authenticity From Elvis' Cousin Billy Smith & Promotional Flyer For Ranch Tour ...more- This is a wooden fence board, from Elvis Presley's "Circle G Ranch". Elvis bought the ranch in the 1960s as a getaway that would still be near Graceland. After he and Priscilla married, they spent part of their honeymoon there, and started out using the ranch house immediately after purchasing the property. Elvis liked his Memphis Mafia around, and he figured the way to do that was to buy eight house trailers and have them installed on poured concrete pads near the lake on the property. The accommodations for the guys were set way back on the 163 acre property, however, Elvis seemed to have really loved hanging out with his buddies back in the trailer area, and as a result, in March he ordered one more two-bedroom trailer for him and Priscilla. In April 1967 when filming for the film "Clambake" was paused, Elvis was able to spend three straight weeks on the ranch, and it has been argued that that Spring was one of the happiest times of his life. There has been some confusion about which Elvis buddies had trailers along the lake, but it is said that they were primarily for married couples, including Jerry Schilling and his wife, along with Elvis' first cousin Billy Smith and his wife Jo. This wooden board came from a fence on the Circle G Ranch, and was a gift from Billy Smith himself. Smith was Elvis' first cousin, the son of Gladys Presley's oldest brother. He was a member of the Memphis Mafia, and grew up with Elvis in Tupelo, MS. The board measures approx. 12" x 7", and has been branded with the Circle G Ranch logo. The board has been fixed with hanging wire, so that it is ready to hang and be displayed. The board will also come with a hand signed letter of authenticity from Billy Smith, which states that the piece comes from a fence on the ranch property, which Elvis had built for his privacy. This is an excellent investment piece, as Celebrity Memorabilia continues to rise in value faster and more steadily than any other asset class, due to the uniqueness and rarity of the items. This piece comes directly from someone who was very close with the King, from what is said to have been some of the happiest times of his life. The piece has been very well kept, and is in excellent condition. The lot will also include a promotional flyer for tours of the ranch.

Elvis Presley's Shot Out TV From Lisa Marie's Room

Lot # 10B (Sale Order: 22 of 156)

Elvis Presley's Shot Out TV From Lisa Marie's Bedroom W/Signed Documentation (Previously on Tour W/Rascal Flatts) - This television was used at Graceland, and was in Lisa Marie's bedroom. The tv was acquired by Elvis' longtime nurse Tish Henley, who lived in a trailer behind Graceland along with her family. Elvis would often spend time in Lisa's bedroom while she was not there. According to Henley, one day while watching this TV, the picture kept skipping (as TVs often did at the time), and she saw Elvis reach across the TV tray next to the chair in which he was sitting, and pick up a hand gun and shoot the TV. The TV lost power, and Elvis told Tish to get her husband to take it out to what he referred to as the "TV Graveyard" (it is said that this is not the only TV that Elvis shot during his lifetime). Before trashing the TV, Tish's husband Tommy plugged it in and to his amazement it still worked. When Tish told Elvis that the television was still working he told her to use it for her daughter's room in their trailer. This piece will come with signed letters of authenticity from Tish Henley, as well as Stephen Shutts, whom obtained the TV from Tish. Shutts is a well known music historian and avid collector, TV personality and author. He has worked with Graceland, CMT, The Country Music Hall of Fame, and many others, including Rascal Flatts, for whom he created a Elvis themed wedding chapel for their Flatts Fest Tour. This TV toured in that chapel. VIEW MORE PICTURES
