If you’ve always wanted to buy some Elvis memorabilia, here’s your chance to pick up the autopsy tools used to embalm the King back in August 1977. There’s also a toe tag.
The sale takes place August 12 at Leslie Hindman Auctioneers in Chicago, where you can pick up a pair of rubber gloves, forceps, lip brushes, a comb and eye liner, needle injectors, an arterial tube and aneurysm hooks, all of which the auctioneers say were used only once.
The collection belongs to an anonymous senior embalmer from the Memphis Funeral Home, who kept the instruments, and a shipping invoice marked “Elvis Presley.”
The death dreck is expected to fetch about $16,000 combined for the two lots.
The late Elvis earned $55 million in 2009, according to Forbes.com.
