An original front gate admission voucher for the Mississippi-Alabama Fair and Dairy Show, in Tupelo, Mississippi, from October 3, 1945 - the day on which ten-year-old Elvis Presley performed the song, "Old Shep" in the children's talent show, after being entered into the contest by his 5th grade teacher, Mrs. Oleta Grimes.

Elvis would return to the same fairgrounds in 1956, where he performed to crowds of screaming teenagers.
