Elvis Presley's first ever recording 'My Happiness' is to be sold at auction at his former home of Graceland in Memphis, it has been revealed.
The song was recorded in June 1953 when the King of Rock n Roll visited Memphis Recording Service at the age of 18 to record his first song, the BBC reported.
The auction will take place on 8th January, 2015, what would have been the star's 80th birthday.
The other items in the auction will include his driving license, issued in 1952, a 1955 contract to perform on the Louisiana Hayride radio and TV programmes and a jacket worn in the film Viva Las Vegas.
