Знаменитые синие замшевые туфли Элвиса Пресли ушли с молотка за более чем 150 тыс. долларов

CULTURE

Когда в 1956 году дебютный альбом Элвиса Пресли штурмовал чарты, песня «Blue Suede Shoes» стала его вступительным треком.

Теперь же синие замшевые туфли короля рок-н-ролла были проданы за баснословную сумму в 120 000 фунтов стерлингов (около 152 000 долларов) на торгах аукционного дома  «Генри Олдридж и сын».

Торги за обувь, которая была описана как «культовый предмет шоу-бизнеса, который просто превосходит популярную культуру 20-го века», начались с 55 000 фунтов стерлингов (около 69 600 долларов).

Как сообщили CNN на аукционе, обувь была куплена клиентом из Калифорнии.

Согласно описанию на сайте аукциона, Пресли носил эти туфли, когда пел «I Want You, I Need You, I Love You» и «Hound Dog» на «Шоу Стива Аллена» в 1956 году, и подарил их своему другу Алану Фортасу в 1958 году, в ночь перед отправкой в армию США.

К лоту прилагалось письмо о подлинности, подписанное от руки компанией Velvet, а также письмо Фортаса, в котором описываются события того вечера, когда ему подарили туфли.
