Before he became famous and before he became the King. Wow. Just amazing. Enjoy.
Rarely-seen pictures of a 21-year-old Elvis Presley in the beginning of his career show all stars start somewhere, even the King of rock 'n' roll,
Taken by photographer Alfred Wertheimer during Elvis' time on the road in 1956, the snaps show that despite his tender years, he already had his legendary movements and Brylcreem hairdo figured out.
Mr Wertheimer, now 83, caught the would-be King's more intimate moments as he records his music, perform on tour and sneak a kiss with a young fan backstage.
