Meeting Elvis: vol 1 My Treasured Memories (My Treasured Memories of Elvis)

Meeting Elvis: vol.1 My Treasured Memories is based upon the title, My Treasured Memories of Elvis. Judy Palmer runs an Elvis fan club in Spokane, WA. She travels to Memphis twice and meets her hero. We first published the hardcover title, ISBN #978-0-9632274-1-6 in 2009; hardcover printing by Signature Book Printing. Because of the number and size of photographs, we are creating an eight part series of ebooks. This is Judy Palmerâ‚¬s book. It is a book written by an Elvis fan for Elvis fans.So many fans want to know â‚¬Å“What was he like?â‚¬Â Judy answers this question by sharing her experiences with you. From her stories I am impressed by this thought; small gestures matter. He said â‚¬Å“Thank youâ‚¬Â for a photograph or a scrapbook. When he could, he shared a joke or small talk with his fans. He was patient and kind. He somehow made them all feel significant. Elvis lives on today, not only because of the big moments in his career; but also that endearing quality of his character. The heart of Judyâ‚¬s book is her concert photos. Many fans took countless number of photos of Elvis performing. After 1970 Judy taught herself to photograph in natural light so she wouldnâ‚¬t get caught by the showroom security. She was now free from the limitations of flash photography. She always sat close to the stage. Her new skill and proximity to Elvis gave her a point of view most amateur photographers did not have. She was able to capture his mood on stage without disturbing him. Her photos were highly prized from the beginning, other fans immediately wanted copies for themselves. Judy quickly moved from trading copies to selling prints. As she attended more shows, she mailed written descriptions of what she saw and price lists for reprints. She gained a reputation as one of the finest amateur photographers of Elvis. She created a â‚¬Å“brand name,â‚¬Â an identity for herself among Elvis fans.Judy chose the photographs and the stories for this book. I edited only for clarity, not for content. It is also important that she chose what not to include. Such is her desire to protect Elvis that she will not publish an image, or a story that she considers unflattering. Both Judy and I hope you enjoy this tribute to Elvis by people who loved Elvis.
