Description
Photographer's
caption
reads
, "
Elvis
and
Marilyn
met
three
years
ago
,
before
she was
Marilyn
.
Back
then, she was
just
a
good
looking
woman
from
Kansas
. But
Elvis
-
already
resplendent
in his
custom-made
Elvis
suit
-
fell
in
love
anyway
.
After
a
time
, or a
few
times
anyway
,
Marilyn
went
off
on her
own
.
Elvis
didn't
see
her for a
year-and-a-half
. Then she
turned
up
on the
arm
of
Zorro
.
It
took
him
two
months
to
win
Marilyn
back
.
When
I
brought
them a
print
of this
photograph
, they
wanted
a
photo
holding
their
photo
-
another
mirror
for the
Hollywood
hall
of
mirrors.
