Elvis? Graceland?
Most folks (well, the older ones today) are very familiar with Elvis Presley and many were his fans.
Indeed, he was the 'cat's meow' 'back in the day'.
Elvis purchased Graceland, his home in Memphis, TN, on this day, March 19, in 1957.
According to a calendar given to us by 2 friends of DIT, Elvis put $1,000 down to purchase it (the total purchase price was $102,500).

In addition to his 'Rock and Roll' music, he also loved to sing Hymns.
