The Elvis room in an adapted garage next to the owner's house contains thousands of rare and expensive recordings, souvenirs and memorabilia. There are approximately 4,000 recordings in this collection ­ 80 percent of which are imported - including LPs, EPs, 10 inch LPs, 45s, 78s, cassettes, compact discs, laser discs, gold and silver records and picture discs of all sizes.

Other items include 24 carat gold discs, 50-60s bootleg recordings and interviews, a 10 inch Christmas album autographed in 1968, concert tickets, an original Elvis autograph, as well as many other Presley family autographs, a guitar badge owned by Vester Presley (Elvis' uncle) and many items donated by appreciative visitors. The owner, Kevin D. Wasley, also trades rare Elvis paraphernalia with overseas fans to enhance this collection.
