Elvis PresleyFrom TMZ

The King may have left the building but his prescription pills are still here: A bottle that contained Elvis Presley’s prescription antihistamines was sold this week at an auction for more than $2,600. That’s a mighty expensive prescription plan! While the bottle still contained some of The King’s original pills, L.A. County police told auction house Julien’s that it would be a federal crime to sell the bottle with pills included.

Other unusual Hollywood ephemera sold during the auction included a gold-plated gun owned by the Elvis, which sold for more than $28,000; Alfred Hitchcock’s passport, which went for more than $19,000; and a prop umbrella once used by Marilyn Monroe for $42,000. The umbrella will become part of the collection of the Museum of Style Icons in County Kildare, Ireland.

I’d love to know WHO has had that bottle of pills all these years. Who and why would someone buy it? I guess there’s something for everyone.

Elvis is STILL the King!
