Offered is a Elvis Presley Madison Square Garden Concert Group which includes a concert ticket stub attached to a souvenir photo album and 22 original photos from the concert. (Kodak stopped printing on this stock in 1972.) Also included are two newspaper cllippings reporting on the wildly successful concerts.
Elvis’ performances at Madison Square Garden in New York City in June of 1972 were some of his most momentous, considering not only the importance of the venue and the success of the concerts, but the fact that they were his first live performances in New York since the 1950s. The first three shows sold out immediately, a first in Madison Square Garden history, prompting the addition of a fourth. Each show was attended by over 20,000 fans, making it more than 80,000 fans over the course of the weekend who enjoyed a set list consisting of his early hits, fan favorites from his movies, new hits and other songs that included “American Trilogy,” “Can’t Help Falling in Love,” “That’s All Right,” “Suspicious Minds,” “Heartbreak Hotel,” “Proud Mary” and many more.
The material presents in Near Mint condition overall.
