Great Pictures #2 - Young Elvis on his first appearance on this day!
Oleta Grimes, one of Elvis's teachers, liked Elvis’s musical talent and enrolled the 10y old Elvis in a radio talent contest on October the 3rd.
Elvis surprised everyone by climbing up on a chair while on stage to reach the microphone to sing “Old Shep” in front of several hundred people.
He only won fifth prize.
The next year in order to keep young Elvis away from his bicycle, on which he was constantly getting hurt, his mother bought him a guitar and the rest is history!
