Elvis Presley’s will put on sale

LOS ANGELES - Late singer Elvis Presley’s will found in a garbage bin in 1987 is expected to fetch up to $1,500 at an auction this weekend.
A law firm employee kept the document after finding it in an office garbage bin during a clear-out, a decade after the “Jailhouse Rock” hit maker died.
It will be auctioned off alongside a lock of Presley’s hair and a scarf once worn by the singer, at the Henry Aldridge & Son sale in Wiltshire, England, Nov 13.
“Marked ‘deceased’, this is a file copy of this document from the mid 1970s and would have been used extensively during that traumatic period in 1977, the will gives a fascinating insight into the private wishes of the king of rock ‘n’ roll,” acesshowbiz.com quoted auctioneer Andrew Aldridge as saying.
