Elvis phenomenon happen in the United State. From screaming
girls, number one hits, to his marriage, to the birth of his
daughter, all the way to his death. Elvis Presley actions are
probably the most impersonated of any person in the history of
celebrities. Elvis Presley made an impact on music that changed
the course of music history. His personality and style brought
people by the thousands to follow him where ever he went to
listen to his music and watch him dance.

Presley. Mr. Moon the collector of these items started his
