POSTCARD 34 ~









On December 21, 1970, Elvis Presley arrived at the White House carrying a commemorative world war II colt .45. Being a badge collector he wanted to trade the gun to President Nixon for a narcotics bureau badge. Elvis received the badge and the gun is now on display at the Richard Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, California. The irony is too thick & bewildering to measure. 
Anyway, no one looks stoned here.
