Offered is a 1960's "Normandy Distributors" stainless steel butter dish from Elvis Presley's home Graceland. The steel dish was eventually gifted to Elvis' maid and cook at Graceland, Nancy Rooks. This item was displayed proudly in Nancy's home for decades. The maker's mark on the bottom includes "Made in Japan", a hallmark of mid-century stainless steel housewares.

Nancy worked as a maid and cook for Elvis Presley at Graceland from 1967 to 1977, and stayed on to work for the family until 1982. She treasured her time working for Elvis and the Presley family, and always enjoyed sharing her memories with fans over the years. She made countless meals for Elvis, including his peanut butter and banana sandwiches. As a member of the Graceland family, Nancy was given any number of household items, decorative pieces or keepsakes that Elvis, Vernon, Elvis' grandmother Minnie Mae or Elvis' Aunt Delta wanted her to have. Sadly, Nancy passed just this past August 15, during The annual "Elvis Week" celebrations in Memphis. The items offered in this auction emanate directly from Nancy's estate and are accompanied by a letter of authenticity from her family.

The dish shows signs of moderate to heavy use, but presents withouth damage. Stunning Near Mint condition.
