Elvis pops up

Posted by Jan Gardner November 6, 2006 08:16 AM

The king of rock 'n' roll's home literally pops up in the new book "Graceland.'' You can look inside his refrigerator, check out his wardrobe, and change the channels on his TV. Priscilla Presley gave her blessing to the pop-up book, contributing an introduction.

It's unclear if Elvis Presley's estate will benefit from sales of the book. Kurt Cobain recently topped Presley as the top-earning dead celebrity, according to Forbes.com. But the fact that next year is the 30th anniversary of Presley's death may give him some lift.
