Est. $5,000-$7,500 Elvis Presley's Personally Owned "Paris" Pajamas W/Notarized LOA & Provenance - These yellow pajamas by Paris were personally owned by Elvis Presley before he gave them to his barber Homer Gilleland during Gill's stint as Elvis' personal hair stylist for over twenty years. The pajamas include a yellow long-sleeved top with navy blue trim and lighter yellow long pants. Both the top and pants have interior "Paris" labels. The pajamas will be accompanied by a notarized letter of authenticity on Shelby County Sheriff's Department letterhead from Thomas Morgan Jr., who went to high school with Elvis and reconnected with the King many years later, as he was the Administrative Assistant to the Shelby County Sherrif's Department and eventually even assisted with coordinating the security for Elvis' funeral. Morgan acquired the top from Gilleland in the 1990s, as documented in the letter of authenticity. The jacket will also come with a copy of a letter of provenance from Morgan also on Shelby County Sheriff's Department letterhead, which documents his relationship with Elvis and his father Vernon Presley.
