I'm far from being an expert, but the first ones Elvis part has some similarities with my late 50s autograph:

there are a lot of good forgeries out there.   but I believe the first one is authentic. the second one is strange.

S-man...I believe I used to own the first example once upon a time.

It is signed on the inside of an 8x10  photo holder showing a newly married  

couple in Las Vegas.

 

They had their picture taken in the  Sands(?) showroom on their honeymoon by

one of those roving photographers. They've since divorced. Elvis also

signed  their photo.

 

Do you own these ??

Number 1 looks pretty good and number 2 is a no go.

Thanks for the input.

No I don't own them, but was consideding bidding on them.

After viewing the feedback from everyone I decided to get an opinion from Roger on number 1, and it came back no good. 

I find Elvis a nightmare!!

Agree on that.  I was totally wrong!  Roger is the man!

That certainly surprises me.

I bought and owned the piece because I believed it to be real. Sold it back to the guy I bought it  from in good faith.

Surprising indeed...
