To commemorate 35 years since the death of Elvis Presley a rare auction is being held with 100 of The King's most treasured possessions for sale - including his personal bible.

The 1,600 page, gold leather embossed bible was a Christmas gift in 1957 from his aunt and uncle Vester and Clettes Presley and is estimated to sell for GBP 15,000-GBP 20,000.

Omega Auctions spokesperson Paul Fairweather said: "The Holy Bible was Elvis Presley's most precious book throughout his life from Christmas 1957 to his final day. He read and wrote in this Holy Bible over many years."

The King of Rock 'n' Roll died on August 16 1977 and many of the items have never appeared on the market before.

Other highlights of the auction include Elvis owned clothes, jewellery, shoes and signed contracts.

The auction will take place at Omega Auction house of Stockport on Saturday September 8.

Zasebnemu letalu Elvisa Presleyja, ki že 35 let žalostno propada v puščavi Nove Mehike na tako imenovanem pokopališču letal, se morda obetajo lepši časi, saj bo ta mesec znova ponujeno na dražbi. Tisti, ki bo za nekdaj prestižno jekleno ptico odštel največ, jo bo sicer, preden bi znova poletela, moral temeljito prenoviti.

Nekdaj luksuzno letalo je bilo na dražbi prvič leta 2017, izklicna cena je tedaj znašala nekaj več kot 400.000 evrov.

Letalo lockheed z letnico izdelave 1962, je namreč v zelo žalostnem stanju. Zanj je kralj rokenrola leta 1976, leto pred smrtjo, odštel 790.000 evrov in je opremljeno z rdečimi žametnimi sedeži, s prav takšnimi talnimi oblogami, marmornatim umivalnikom z zlatimi detajli, leseno pilotsko kabino, originalnimi kasetofoni, v letalu sta celo mikrovalovka in televizija, žal je vse dodobra načel zob časa.

Elvis je bil lastnik treh zasebnih letal, s katerimi je skupaj z ekipo letel med različnimi koncertnimi prizorišči in prireditvami, na katerih je gostoval. Drugi dve letali sta trenutno na ogled v Gracelandu v Memphisu.

V letalu je na mehkih žametnih sedežih prostora za devet potnikov, bi pa bilo, preden bi znova letelo, potrebno temeljite prenove.
