Description
This hand-painted navy blue tie from the 1950s has an Elvis Presley connection--can you see it? Yes, it in fact reads "Love Me Tender", both forwards and backwards, which when painted together create the illusion of an abstract design. Although I have seen this mirrored-writing style of hand-painted vintage tie before (with a man's name, and also with the word "bullsh**"), I have never seen an Elvis song tie before--so much cooler! The tie is in excellent to mint condition with no flaws to note. It's a great gift for an Elvis fan, or a vintage tie collector.
