1956 - Elvis Presley with Manny, security guard, at the Olympia Theatre in Miami

Olympia Theatre, Miami, Florida


Thank you to Jeff Levine for contributing this great old image of Elvis grabbing the gun from Manny, the Olympia's security guard. The image was scanned from a copy negative contact print that Jeff acquired years ago. The original owner is unknown.

Sorry, but the info on the envelope of the copy negative (which is now owned by a buddy of mine) noted the Olympia theater. Until proved otherwise, I'll stand by that, as I provided the scan.

This was taken in St. Petersburg, not Miami. Same tour but on August 7, 1956. It may have been taken by Bob Moreland who took many pix there and on the 5th in Tampa.

Talk about missing out on the big one, had a job as usher at the olympia but got tired of seeing the Solid Gold Cadillac so many times, I knew every word of script, so I quit. Guess what. The Elvis show was about a month later.

My wife, Fran Young and her cousin Regina Smith went to this Elvis show at the Olympia theatre in 1956. They said they could hardly hear Elvis for all the girls screaming but they loved it anyway.
