Nice pull! Glad you are enjoying these, that's what it's all about!

I have always been an Elvis fan so I was glad to seee these, I have another box comming Monday so I will update then!

Looks like a great one. I don't know the manufacturer, do they have a website?

Congrats on your pulls watchers of watchers!

The manufacturer Press Pass has made Nascar cards for years and has dabbled in some other stuff as well such as Football & Basketball.

Their website is here:

There is also a special packaging of these cards (seen at Wal-Mart) for $19.99. You get 8 packs of cards and a limited Elvis car. I think there are 6-different cars. Johnny Lighting made these cars of course since Press Pass'es parent company owns that company too.

Thanks Mike. I've checked their site and they don't have information about the Elvis set though.

Yeah, I noticed that. I just sent them an email asking why no info. We will see if I get any response.

Don't forget that Press Pass made a few non-sport sets many years ago (way back in 1993). One of the gentleman who started Press Pass was a former Pro Set employee but he is no longer with the Press Pass.

Wasn't one of the sets a Princess Diana set or something like that?

Mike.

Bought two more boxes, in the first one I got three more foil cards I needed and a base set.
The second box had five foil cards all repeats but I did get an auto for Yvonne Craig from It happened at the Worlds Fair!!
A box saver still happy with these!

Yes, Press Pass made The Royal Family. They also did the comic set Tribe and were also going to do Eudaemon but only the promos were released. This one was another comic set based on Nelson's artwork.

I received an email from Press Pass and they say that the Elvis checklist should be posted by the end of the month. Only 2 days away! LOL!

Hello Everyone,

First off, I just want to say thank you all for your feedback on the Elvis Lives set, and congratulations to "Watchers of Watchers" on your break! I have seen a lot of breaks on this product, and people seem to be very pleased overall. The memorabilia cards in this set are carrying good value, and I can't wait to see someone pull one of the cut signature cards! The checklist should hopefully be published soon (our website is operated by our corporate facility, and unfortunately we don't have much control over how fast things get updated).

Obviously, the Elvis trading card set has been done before. However, those sets left a lot to be desired in my opinion. We tried to really pay attention to detail and produce a quality set. We took the time to make sure the photos and copy matched up and that things were as accurate as possible so that collectors and Elvis fans would have something they could really cherish.

We were also excited about the autograph and memorabilia program! Elvis Lives includes autographs from several of Elvis' band members and colleagues such as James Burton (guitarist and TCB band leader), D.J. Fontana (drummer in 50s-60s), Scotty Moore (guitarist in 50s-60s), and Yvonne Craig (co-star in Kissin Cousins and It Happened at the World’s Fair). These people were a real pleasure to work with, and they were very excited about the set.

I don’t want to take up too much of everyone’s time, but I do appreciate the feedback so far. If anyone has any comments or suggestions, let us know! We would love to hear from our customers.

Thanks again!

Sincerely,

Jesse

Thank you very much for taking the time to share informations with us about Elvis Lives.

Has anybody else opened a box of these yet?

all I got was a base set and 4 foil cards. Not worth what I paid for the box, very dissapointing.

Where exactly would that be Mike? I went to that website, but I can't find it.

Welcome to Card Talk Press Pass! I haven't found a box of Elvis Lives yet.
