TRAWELL’S FATHER WORKED AS A SECURITY GUARD AT GRACELAND, WHICH ALLOWED SHIRLEY TO ATTEND PARTIES AND EVENTS, EVENTUALLY BECOMING FRIENDS WITH ELVIS. WHILE VISITING AT THE TRAWELLS, ELVIS LEFT THE COAT IN THE LIVING ROOM. WHEN SHIRLEY TRIED TO MAKE HIM AWARE HE WAS LEAVING THE COAT, ELVIS TOLD HER SHE COULD KEEP IT BECAUSE HE HAD ORDERED SEVERAL OTHERS FROM INTERNATIONAL FASHION, POSSIBLY MAKING THIS THE FIRST AND ORIGINAL RED SUPERFLY COAT. COAT HAS BEEN AUTHENTICATED IN THE PAST BY NOTABLE ELVIS ASSOCIATES SUCH AS J.D. SUMNER AND D.J. FONTANA, AMONG OTHERS, NOTING THE KINK IN THE LAPPELL THAT TENDED TO FOLD OVER WHEN WORN BY ELVIS.
