John S. Walk meets Elvis

Back in 1955 my Dad met Elvis. It was in Brownwood Texas. Elvis was booked into a fireman's charity performance. It was October 10th, 1955. It was a package tour. For years I have heard my Dad tell of meeting, shaking the hand of, and getting an autograph from Elvis Presley. I always imagined what it would look like. So, with some clever editing, I created a recreation of how the moment may have looked when my dad met Elvis on 10/10/55. Here it is:

A little bit over a month later (Nov. 21, 1955) Elvis signed with RCA records.
