Offered here is an incredible signed never-before-seen photograph of Elvis Presley with his ex-fiancee Bonnie Barrasso during a 1959 screen test at 20th Century Fox. Elvis Presley has signed the photograph in a blue pen, which reads, “To Bonnie, The Best of Everything, To You and Yours Always, Sincerely, Elvis Presley”.
Provenance: Bonnie B Collection. Bonnie Bunkley Barrasso was just 17 years old when she walked into Graceland and met Elvis Presley for the first time. Presley asked her out on a date for that same evening. They drove around Memphis in the back of his limousine. Barrasso and Presley were together on and off for approximately three years. Presley would fly Barrasso and her mother to his movie sets while he was filming. They would stay in hotels for weeks while he was filming so she could be near him. She stayed at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills. Presley even asked Bonnie to marry her. This is the unearthed collection of Bonnie B.
Good to fair condition.
