Elvis jumpsuit sells for $300,000

[zatoicchi]

A jumpsuit owned by Elvis Presley has been sold for $300,000, reports the Associated Press.

The famous costume, which features a hand-embroidered blue and gold peacock design, was reportedly Presley's favourite outfit.

He wore it for the first time in 1974 at the Forum in Los Angeles, then later for the cover of his album Promised Land.

Auctioneer Gotta Have It! declined to reveal who purchased the jumpsuit, describing the winning bidder only as "a big Elvis collector".

They could... so they should be made a museum-piece before people start giving every time more $, so they everyone can enjoy seeing them. :)
