"Inside The Archives" (The Iconic TCB Ring and More)

[@dagulshyneshard]

She is REALLY heavy handed with those items. She's handling them like she's going through her veggies in the freezer. Just leaving the bags open and putting them to the side. Wowwww.

[@anytimeelgin8645]

That big 11.5 carrot stone is actually a CZ. The real diamond was removed and used for Ginger's engagement ring.

[@Elizabeth-dw6lc]

Yes, she should have stated that.

[@ChrisMichaelWard]

I love that Angie takes time to do these videos for us fans! It was nice to see his ring and wallet, wasn’t it?

[@mindiehamzy8192]

Seriously so worried that kids these days won't ever know just how important Elvis was and is to music!! Although I haven't gotten to go to Graceland "yet" I love these videos!!

[@jayviviano109]

The "He Ain't Heavy father, he's my Brother" card is of particular interest as it's an indication of one of the Charities that Elvis was apparently donating to at that time. - "Nebraska Boys Town", an organization that helped kids It's listed in the paperwork of Graceland archives (as I'm sure Angie is aware of) as one of the organization's Elvis was donating to. I just didn't know he was donating to them as early as 57. It's an absolutely wonderful charity and has been in existence for over a hundred years I believe. Very cool to know Elvis was carrying a card in his wallet as a Memento of that organization back then. Many of us in Elvis world are familiar with the great line from 'Luke The Drifter poem Elvis recited on stage in 1970 - "Help your Brother along the way...." "He Ain't Heavy He's My Brother" similar sentiment. One that obviously resonated with Elvis through the years

[@bonniebrown6960]

I love getting to see Elvis' things , but I have to admit it make me sad too . I wish he was still here wearing all of these things . Thank you Angie for sharing this video with us !! I love it !! ❤❤❤

[@musicfanhawk4523]

He would be in his late 80s, he would likely not be wearing or using any of this.

[@swangonzalez4797]

You should keep his legacy alive for the future generations at all costs. He was the greatest entertainer that ever lived.

This one made me cry. The guys said one of the last things they did was slip the ring off Elvis’s finger before they closed the casket

[@melodygoodman6731]

I am confused as to this ring she is showing, did they replace the diamond or is it cubic zirconium because the original diamond was taken out to place into a engagement ring for Ginger. I heard they never got around to replacing the stone so how was it on his finger?

[@robertshabarekh610]

Lowell Hays couldn’t find a diamond that size over night for Elvis to surprise Ginger with the ring so he took the one from the TCB ring and replace the one in the TCB ring with a CZ and the diamond was never replaced with a real one in Elvis TCB ring.

[@hotrodtiki200]

Hello from England When there is so much "stuff" even when its marked up you need to go through it all every once in a while and it would make you think back to when Elvis would wear or use the jewellery and all the other items that he amassed over his short life. Elvis died 2 days before my 12th birthday. I have been a fan for 44 years and he was and STILL IS my HERO. Yes this is a strong word to us BUT ITS TRUE.

Elvis wore that TCB ring when he was in his coffin that’s such a sad but happy piece of jewelry to see

[@Will_DiGiorgio]

The sunglass frames are from a company called Neostyle. I own an older pair. Neostyle Germany custom made the 14k frames themselves and any lens work or TCB logo customizing was done by Dennis Roberts. They were and still are a very high end boutique pair of sunglasses that were mainly mostly just available in California and were very popular with celebrities. I do believe Dennis had more of a hand in custom making the oval style aviators Elvis wore... But I've heard several stories about the incarnation of those glasses.

The TCB ring that Lowell Hays sells looks nice, it is a lot better than what other businesses are passing off. My question concerns the claim, since it comes with the "certificate of authenticity" card from Lowell claiming that his replica is the original size and from original molds; when his replica is smaller and different when compared to the original TCB ring made for Elvis. This video from Graceland archives demonstrates this best. When the lady holds Elvis' original TCB ring up to the camera. Elvis' ring is wider and the lightening bolts are different than what Lowell Hays is selling now.

I had heard this, I was in the Jewelry business for almost 20 years, when I saw the ring on display 2 years ago, I knew the solitare in it wasn't real. But had forgotten about Elvis giving it to ginger.. When I asked the museum employees about the solitare they clammed up and wouldn't talk!

Elvis TCB ring the diamond wasn't replaced its actually a ZC stone, the real diamond was removed as elvis wanted that same size carrot of diamond for gingers engagement ring but his jeweller didn't have one that size and elvis wanted it the very next day, so the jeweller suggested using elvis TCB ring and swapping out the diamond and put a ZC in there instead, his jeweller says it was never replaced due too elvis passing away, still a very cool ring,

[@Casslaydra]

Lol Elvis was a deputy for bexar county here in texas! That’s where I grew up

[@christophers2959]

Can you imagine the value now

[@MsCNail-fe1sj]

It is pronounced Bear County...but spelled Bexar...that is from San Antonio, Texas. My home town. BTW: It should be stated that the original diamond was taken from this ring and made into Ginger's engagement ring and this from what I hear ... a Cubic Zirconia now.

[@justmytwobits]

I believe you are wrong....the 11.5 carat diamond went into Ginger’s engagement ring. Elvis never replaced the cubic zirconia. So, you cannot claim the centre stone to be 11.5 carats.

[@elvis-jj1sc]

Bexar is "Bear" San Antonio, Texas. Really cool to see that.

[@Will_DiGiorgio]

Hi Angie, I have a question that none of the museum employees could answer about the TCB ring, I was visiting 2 years ago this month actually, the ring was on display during my visit. I've been in the jewelry business for 20 years, Im absolutely positive the solitare wasn't a diamond, it looked like Zirconium but most certainly wasn't real. One of the employees indicated they weren't even allowed to talk about it. Any story as to where the solitare is? I took several photos of the ring, showed it to colleagues in the business longer than myself and they all agreed the solitare wasn't real.

[@kirkleythomas9280]

Will - Google Lowell Hays, Elvis’s jeweler, explaining what happened. Ginger Alden has the original solitaire stone that was in the TCB ring. Elvis wanted to give her a ring with a large diamond, but none were available on a short notice. Lowell came up with the idea of taking the stone out of the TCB for Ginger’s ring with plans to later replace it. That never happened and it now has a CZ in it.

[@kelliintexas3575]

He DOES have a Horseshoe version & it has the same size center stone (1) 10.75ct & (14) .75ct ea horse shoe.

[@melissagarcia147]

The original diamond from the TCB ring was taken out and placed in the engagement ring Elvis have to Ginger. So she has it. His jeweler shared a story in an interview how that came about but he pretty much said Elvis called in in the middle of the night asking his jeweler to make a ring and wanted a large diamond. His jeweler told him he couldn’t do it because he wouldn’t be able to get his hands on a diamond the size Elvis wanted as fast as he wanted it by. So Elvis told Him he would find someone else and got off the phone. He then called the jeweler back and they decided to use the diamond from his TCB ring. After that the jeweler places a CZ in the TCB Ring but I think it was supposed to be temporary but it never got changed.

[@mrsg.9224]

Oh come on… lmfao You obviously are a Ginger fan 😂☠️

[@mrsg.9224]

You don’t know if they ever replaced that diamond. No one know’s. The story from Ginger Alden is he took it out for her “Engagement ring.”
