8mm Elvis - New book by Vince Wright

#1 by Greg Perry , Sat Apr 15, 2023 4:21 pm

I just received Vince Wright's new book "8mm Elvis - The Story of Elvis on 8mm Film". Vince has done a superb job on this. It is over 150 pages in length with many, many interesting photos that really capture the past when Super8/8mm were widely available. As some of you already know, Vince worked at Derann in the latter years and the book contains a nice foreword written by Ged Jones.

If you are an Elvis Super 8 film fan, I would highly recommend you order a copy. Here are a few sample pics:

I will be placing an order as soon as I can find out where,

I like the way the cover has been designed to look like one of the film box covers.
Thanks for putting this up Greg, I wasnt aware of this book before.

I picked up a copy from Vince at the BFCC. Lovely book and a very clear illustration of his dedication to both the great man and the format!

I kind of forgot about a different king that had his coronation today, so I will announce the episode about the king of rock and roll tomorrow 😊
