In 1956, one of the many items designed for distribution to Elvis Presley's target audience was the “Elvis Presley Hat” with color images and song title graphics. The hat was promoted with the offered original advertising poster with large red and black letters that shout, “Gals! Guys! Here it is! Elvis Presley Hat $1.25” with an image of Elvis wearing this style hat. The lower right contains the trademark information, “Manufactured Exclusively by Magnet Hat & Cap Corp / 1956 Elvis Presley Enterprises All Rights Reserved.” The poster measures 9 by 17 inches and presents with one tear at the left edge which has been repaired on the reverse with a piece of tape. Otherwise only minor edge wear is evident. Colors are unusually bold for these posters. Excellent condition.
