The other letter is from Charlie Hodge on his personal letterhead stating that Elvis wore the outfit in 1970-71 and recalls Elvis wearing it on stage one night at the Hilton in Las Vegas, and then going over to the Riviera to see Engelbert Humperdinck. Hodge states that he was there the day when Elvis gave the outfit to his cousin Harold Loyd at Graceland. Very good condition.
