Every now and than something rare pops up. The on-line Gotta Have It auction site put up these 3D slides. Estimate: 45,000-50,000


From the auction:



This is a set of never-before-seen 10 3D color slides that were taken with a special camera at the February 1971 Elvis Presley concert at the International Hotel in Las Vegas. When viewed through a 3D viewer, 3D glasses, or life size through a 3D projector (you literally feel that you can reach out and touch Elvis, an incredible experience. It is the closest you'll ever get to seeing Elvis live again as the 3D images truly capture his electrifying, high energy performance. These slides come directly from the photographer who took them Joe Pulliam who has had them in his possession for 38 years. They have never been seen by the public. The entire set of slides are accompanied by a 3D viewer. If you would like more information regarding the slides or procurement of a 3D projector, screen and 3D glasses.
