Redden tells a story of a young Malcolm Forbes traveling on an ocean liner with his family to Scotland. He put his favorite toy boat on a long string and put it down into the turbulent ocean to sail behind the huge liner.

“And needless to say,” says Redden, “the boat was never seen again, and he was devastated. So, there really is a Rosebud sense to all of this; he was trying to bring back that lost toy of his childhood.”

And that’s true for many collectors. (source)

I purchased a great Elvis clock for the front entry for the office where little Elvis gets his groove on with each tick of the clock.  Basically, if you can’t visit Warhol’s factory, Graceland is next.  Or am I missing something?

Anyway, please enjoy these pictures from Graceland in Memphis Tennessee.  And remember – they don’t allow flash so some of the pictures in the darker rooms like the Jungle room aren’t quite focused because of the long shutter time.
