Elvis Presley Owned & Worn Black Silk Shirt Circa 1969 (Elvis Presley Museum & Tish Henley)

Elvis Presley Owned & Worn Black Button Down Shirt Circa 1969 (Elvis Presley Museum & Tish Henley).

Offered here is a black shirt owned and worn by Elvis Presley which he gave to his nurse, Tish Henley. It is in its original display case from the Elvis-A-Rama museum in Las Vegas. With additional provenance from The Elvis Museum founded by Jimmy Velvet.

The shirt is circa 1969.

The shirt was originally purchased by Elvis Presley while on vacation in Hawaii. The shirt has a silk passage clothing label (Size L) at the collar. Elvis would rarely wear short sleeved shirts due to his concern with his slender arms. This shirt was later given to Tish Henley, who worked as Elvis’s personal nurse from 1968-1977. She lived in Graceland in a mobile home with her husband. This shirt was obtained directly from Tish Henley.

Good condition, framed beautifully.
