ReplyDeleteI love your jacket. I do think 1975 is not the correct year. These jackets were, as far as I can research, given out just before the June tour of 1977. There are no known pictures of anyone wearing the winterjackets before Elvis passed away. They are genuine jackets though, made shortly before Elvis died. They were meant to be used for the winter tour of 1977. The year 1975 shows up in at least 1 other report I read online, but again there are no knows pictures of Elvis entourage wearing the jackets during any of the winter tours of 1975 or 1976, and many pictures of each tour exist.
