A Graceland Too in MS (Through USA Today)

Through USA Today:

By Emily Wagster Pettus, Associated Press Writer

Graceland Too is in Holly Springs, a northern Mississippi town of 8,000. It's a convenient stop for fans on an Elvis pilgrimage, sitting about halfway between Elvis Presley's birthplace in Tupelo, Miss., and the King's final home and resting place, the unaffiliated Graceland mansion in Memphis

It is located int he home of a 67-year-old former auto worker, Paul MacLeod. He will escort you through his "discombobulating", floor-to-ceiling collection of photos, records, figurines, cardboard cutouts, candy wrappers, clocks and other random kitsch featuring the King of Rock 'n' Roll.
