She is REALLY heavy handed with those items. She's handling them like she's going through her veggies in the freezer. Just leaving the bags open and putting them to the side. Wowwww.
That big 11.5 carrot stone is actually a CZ. The real diamond was removed and used for Ginger's engagement ring.

Yes, she should have stated that.
I love that Angie takes time to do these videos for us fans! It was nice to see his ring and wallet, wasn’t it?
Seriously so worried that kids these days won't ever know just how important Elvis was and is to music!! Although I haven't gotten to go to Graceland "yet" I love these videos!!

Don't worry I am Gen Z and love E! I hope to go to Graceland soon!
The "He Ain't Heavy father, he's my Brother" card is of particular interest as it's an indication of one of the Charities that Elvis was apparently donating to at that time. - "Nebraska Boys Town", an organization that helped kids It's listed in the paperwork of Graceland archives (as I'm sure Angie is aware of) as one of the organization's Elvis was donating to. I just didn't know he was donating to them as early as 57. It's an absolutely wonderful charity and has been in existence for over a hundred years I believe. Very cool to know Elvis was carrying a card in his wallet as a Memento of that organization back then. Many of us in Elvis world are familiar with the great line from 'Luke The Drifter poem Elvis recited on stage in 1970 - "Help your Brother along the way...." "He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother" similar sentiment. One that obviously resonated with Elvis through the years
I love getting to see Elvis' things , but I have to admit it make me sad too . I wish he was still here wearing all of these things . Thank you Angie for sharing this video with us !! I love it !! ❤❤❤

He would be in his late 80s, he would likely not be wearing or using any of this.
You should keep his legacy alive for the future generations at all costs. He was the greatest entertainer that ever lived.
Love all the archives you go thru and show us!!! Wow $35,000 back In the 70’s for a ring was as much as a home lol.
Reading glasses!!! Did’n knew Elvis had it! Great to know the Man behind the Myth... Great!
Angie you really seem to enjoy your work !
wow, Elvis's rings are stored the same way as my xmas tree decorations.

Will you show the box with hats sometime? It was to the right of jewelry. Elvis had the most fabulous wardrobe of anyone, EVER and also neat hats. Would love to see. Thank you so much for this treasure.
Wow. Angie. You my friend are one lucky day. 😎⚡️🥰❤️🕺🏻
This one made me cry. The guys said one of the last things they did was slip the ring off Elvis’s finger before they closed the casket

I am confused as to this ring she is showing, did they replace the diamond or is it cubic zirconium because the original diamond was taken out to place into a engagement ring for Ginger. I heard they never got around to replacing the stone so how was it on his finger?
@robertshabarekh610

Lowell Hays couldn’t find a diamond that size over night for Elvis to surprise Ginger with the ring so he took the one from the TCB ring and replace the one in the TCB ring with a CZ and the diamond was never replaced with a real one in Elvis TCB ring.
Hi Angie love that T C B ring Man I'd love to be able to look through Elvis's belongings You have the most awesome job seriously Thanks for the awesome videos Stay safe and well Miss Angie 🦋😃

Hello from England When there is so much "stuff" even when its marked up you need to go through it all every once in a while and it would make you think back to when Elvis would wear or use the jewellery and all the other items that he amassed over his short life. Elvis died 2 days before my 12th birthday. I have been a fan for 44 years and he was and STILL IS my HERO. Yes this is a strong word to us BUT ITS TRUE.

Wow, the wallet was a fantastic insight! Thank you.
Showing more jewelry up close like that would fantastic! Thank you Angie!
I didn’t know that the center stone was a CZ…he had the original 11.5 carat diamond taken out to make Ginger Alden’s engagement ring and the jeweller didn’t have a replacement diamond for it so he put in a CZ stone and Elvis died before he could change it back….interesting!
Amazing video again Angie! I could play in there all day just opening boxes. Everything about Elvis was iconic.
I agree with one of the comment below, I don’t know what I prefer: the Elvis’stuff (more on rings please, Elvis jewelry is fascinating !) or you Angie! You are really pretty, charismatic and heartwarming (I love how you say: « how cool is that ? » and « stay healthy », it’s lovely. I caught the Covid19 and it’s something that is pretty hard to deal with depending on the moment. When I feel a little better, I watch your videos, I watch you and it brings some relief. THANKS ANGIE for such a wonderful idea (if you look for an assistant, here I am :-)
Angie, I'm so jealous.There is no way I will ever get to Graceland from here in England,did go to the O2 for both Elvis exhibitions,which I loved so am loving what your showing us,please don't ever stop.💗😊🥇

The TCB ring that Lowell Hays sells looks nice, it is a lot better than what other businesses are passing off. My question concerns the claim, since it comes with the "certificate of authenticity" card from Lowell claiming that his replica is the original size and from original molds; when his replica is smaller and different when compared to the original TCB ring made for Elvis. This video from Graceland archives demonstrates this best. When the lady holds Elvis' original TCB ring up to the camera. Elvis' ring is wider and the lightening bolts are different than what Lowell Hays is selling now.
You are really making me want to come there.. thank you so much ❤️
Awesome you have a amazing job long live the king
best job ever!
Love your work Angie.. thank you
Angie,could you please show anymore of Elvis stage costumes?
The sunglass frames are from a company called Neostyle. I own an older pair. Neostyle Germany custom made the 14k frames themselves and any lens work or TCB logo customizing was done by Dennis Roberts. They were and still are a very high end boutique pair of sunglasses that were mainly mostly just available in California and were very popular with celebrities. I do believe Dennis had more of a hand in custom making the oval style aviators Elvis wore... But I've heard several stories about the incarnation of those glasses.
Awesome!
I love Elvis ,And I love seeing he's Jewelry, please show us more. Thank you 🙏😊💓💕❤
Elvis took the diamond in that ring for an engagement ring for Ginger. That ring has a CC in it.
Angie I really enjoy these videos. You have the best job in the world. I think you with regards to Elvis are an expert and full of wonderful information . Thank you for keeping his memory alive. 👍
Thank you Angie for letting Australia see behind the man that we all loved and missed

Lol Elvis was a deputy for bexar county here in texas! That’s where I grew up
But the 11.5 center stone is CZ. The real stone was taken out to make Ginger's engagement ring. The CZ was never replaced.
Im crying😭😭😭😭😭
Love these videos . Wish I had her job and her knowledge.
Very cool stuff.
Iam curious to know where Elvis's regular sunglasses are at and are there any videos made of them anywhere?
The original diamond on this TCB ring was swapped for a ring that elvis was having made for ginger
It is pronounced Bear County...but spelled Bexar...that is from San Antonio, Texas. My home town. BTW: It should be stated that the original diamond was taken from this ring and made into Ginger's engagement ring and this from what I hear ... a Cubic Zirconia now.
Actually, the glasses are not aviators. They were his reading glasses in the Neostyle Nautics frame
Would of loved to see the tiger eye ring. However everything is Amazing thanks Angie. 😊
Really cool
That’s pronounced bear if it’s Texas. Love seeing all of his things, thanks for showing them.
Can you imagine the value now
Cool :) 35.000 $ in 1975 is around 203.000 $ today :)
tcb king!
Omg that TCB ring would be $182,000 today! 😮
Bexar county is pronounced like bear but it’s San Antonio Texas my hometown wow that’s awesome!!!! Been enjoying these videos Angie!!!
What an iconic piece of jewelry fit for a king
Bexar is "Bear" San Antonio, Texas. Really cool to see that.
Also, Gingers engagement ring has the original diamond solitaire from the TCB Ring in it.

I had heard this, I was in the Jewelry business for almost 20 years, when I saw the ring on display 2 years ago, I knew the solitare in it wasn't real. But had forgotten about Elvis giving it to ginger.. When I asked the museum employees about the solitare they clammed up and wouldn't talk!

In jewelerry box do you have glasses and wallet?! How come?!
Elvis TCB ring the diamond wasn't replaced its actually a ZC stone, the real diamond was removed as elvis wanted that same size carrot of diamond for gingers engagement ring but his jeweller didn't have one that size and elvis wanted it the very next day, so the jeweller suggested using elvis TCB ring and swapping out the diamond and put a ZC in there instead, his jeweller says it was never replaced due too elvis passing away, still a very cool ring,
I've watched just 3 times and passed here
You have the coolest job ever Angie!! The tcb ring was suppose to be the diamond used in gingers so called engagement ring according to her????
This is cool
I've a question and I hope you answer it, are there things you do new discover, or is everything registered already?
I like all this but why are the rings an things just in bags .why not in a ring box then bagged. Same with glasses .?

It was Elvis and Bill Belew the first jumpsuit it was like one of his karate outfits so he could move around the stage easier. Then later, the designer Bill Belew started to make the jumpsuits more flashier
