Elvis gave Anita a poodle for
Christmas. For his beloved
mother, Gladys, Elvis went on
a spending spree to and bought
every electrical kitchen
appliance he could find plus the finest cashmere
coat he could find on Beale
Street

No matter how much
Christmas cheer was toasted,
the Presley's could not
overcome their sadness. Christmas 1957 Elvis was serve his Army
induction notice
Elvis loved gift giving.
As he could not send a
gift to each and every fan
he would make it clear how
much he appreciated their
support by posting
Christmas cards
to all the
Elvis Fan Club in the USA
