It's show time! It's the 1973 Alloha satellite link up. The gold trim and platinum stars on the flamboyant white jumpsuit underline the quality of this famous icon. An assured Elvis is complemented by a revealing handle design, complete with 'Easy Rider' sunglasses, an award or two literally for show, and Hawaiian Lei welcome flower necklace. In short, a superb hand made and hand decorated Elvis character jug from Royal Doulton.
The 70s hair is longer and the sideburns too, of course, and the face more mature. But it's unmistakably Elvis. And the handle incorporates some of 'The King of Rock'n'Roll's' own favourite icons. Like the indispensable 'Easy Rider' sunglasses for public appearances. Like the 'Jaycee' Award he wore on his belt and a championship belt he received for record appearances at the International Hotel, Las Vegas. It doesn't end there'the back of the handle is topped by a deputy badge Elvis and his entourage received in 1970 from the Shelby County Sheriff...while the base represents the Lei Elvis received on arrival in Hawaii.
Exclusively designed for Royal Doulton and made available in a limited edition of 2,000.
