At our annual neighborhood yard sale, I picked up this little beauty for next to nothing.

Real velvet and signed by the artist.

I had as much fun carrying it around as I did hanging it.

Now you will need to add a Vevet Elvis to your collection.

Been wanting to add some art to my smoking room. Have had my eye on some Salvador Dali prints lately.

They renamed it to avoid getting sued...

@deathmetal: My wife is a big Elvis fan, we've had a velvet Elvis wall hanging for years! She says that I can't desecrate it by hanging next to my new art piece.

Velvet Elvis is the best Elvis.
Not to mention... just say the phrase: Velvet Elvis.
Everything feels better.

Fun fact: The Velvet Melvin was once the Velvet Elvis, but the estate of the man himself pressured them to change the name.

Click to expand...

As in threatened lawsuit per Hawky's post??
And: Is that fact actually FUN??
Al- Way to go- some guys wouldn't even dare hang that on any wall.

The first thing I though of when I saw the image was Forums member foggymountain and his love for the female form as expressed in art. Very fetching!

Al, I like it. Very Nice!
And speaking of Elvis. Wife and I saw him live twice. Once in Vegas.
