Everything Elvis (Paperback, Thunder's Mouth PR ed.)

The hero of rock 'n' roll, the greatest entertainer who ever lived remains a figure of fascination for his legions of fans. The ultimate Elvis obsessive is Joni Mabe. Immersed in his image and his music since his death in 1977, she has fashioned a fabulous collection of Elvis memorabilia ranging from the curious to the bizarre: pins, bedspreads, posters, votive candles, clothes, lamps, furniture, records, tableaux, locks of his hair and even the 'Maybe Elvis Toenail'. Alongside this pop-art kitsch, she has created colorful textured collages using images of the KING from his early hip-swivelling days to his bejewelled majesty.
