        I don't know where the photos are going (but I've seen a watch, a
clock, and other decorative art objects made with it), but I do know that at
one time, the Presley estate tried to muscle in on the National Archives
action, demanding a cut of the profits from this photo because it contained
the image of The King, which the estate controlled.

        To which the head of the Nixon Presidential Materials Project
replied:  In your dreams. (!!)
