WINEHOUSE AMY: (1983-2011) English Singer. An extremely rare and remarkable illustrated A.L.S., Amy xxxx, six pages, 8vo, n.p., n.d., (2008), to her husband Blake Fielder-Civil ('Baby'). The singer writes an emotional love letter, announcing 'How can it be that we've spent more time apart than together since we've bin wed?' and continuing, in part, 'You're it baby, I want you, I'm ALWAYS thinking of you. I know you know and sometimes you'd probably want me to keep busy with frivolities instead of sitting sadly or wistfully in thoughts of you. Sometimes I don't like the idea of you thinking of me so much because it is frustrating + a tease - but then I think of you constantly, in between breaths, WITH EVERY BEAT OF MY HEART [written alongside a pen and ink drawing of a drum and two drumsticks] So we can wind ourselves up and tease ourselves and get excited together…..I want to look at pictures of you + shed little hot tears of frustration that you would laugh at and tickle me for. Blakela that was the BEST card EVER EVER EVER. Well, I tried to do one back but I had too much to say!…..Firstly baby, your Christopher [a 'creature' of which Winehouse has added a drawing] is the BEST. Mine looked silly. I already told you my first Chris didn't even have a nose! And I was wondering what I'd missed! See he looks like Orville the duck with a poo, I didn't think his nose would show cos of the dummy. I'm silly….I wondered if I can make you a tape now. Blakey I was even thinking of releasing a compilation for you! I don't care if a million music geeks wanna beat me up for commercialising our beloved Elvis - Billy Bragg - Madness - Sub lime. Specials! So I'm thinking: how about I WRITE you a few albums instead. Blake you are the winner of the most beautiful creature I've ever seen. I pinch myself thinking about pinching you baby. OH to kiss your skin. You are grace and majesty, your lips with mine are royal cushions plumped in preparation, pillows that carry us away in sweet savage dreams the minute they meet..You are real Blake, I feel like I've woken from a beautiful dream sometimes so colourful and loving and the only precious jewel I can pluck from memory in the mourning [sic] is a 5 letter fire alarm, a wail of Blake [her husband's name written in large letters, each formed by small hearts] and you're real! You are a REAL boy. Everything I could ever pray for, really my Boy Wonder….in 2009 we're gonna learn driving (as they would have it on paper) properly and everything. Then for Valentine's or our anniversary we can surprise each other with cars (1985 Porschehchee - a convertible WHITE pls and a proper 90's swimming costume to go with it, white Baywatch, a perm + white stilettoes). Don't forget to get me driving gloves - I'm getting your gloves before anything else! Plus for my birthday I got us loads + loads of Agent Provoc. stuff you'll love it. I'm gonna put it on now I've got to sort thru it. I spent about 3K but I live in wait for your face + lap and satisfied smile when I'm vulnerable and gritted teeth when I fuck your eyes….Oh I wish I could sit on your lap and just kiss you, kiss kiss kiss your fucking grin off until it gets very serious. When you begin drifting off and your eyes twitch the beginnings of a dream where we can be together! Blake do you feel my arms around you like I do the other way round? PLEASE my darling think of the same simple sweetnesses that I live for: to wake up + see you before anything else, to smell and taste you!! Oh Blakey I love you….heart you husband, my wonder boy. Your wanton wife in wait, your mermaduke civil…' Each of the pages are numbered ('A' '2' and '3') in the upper left corner by Winehouse above an illustration of a small red heart in her hand. A few water stains (teardrops?) to the first page, just affecting a few words of text (although completely legible). Otherwise VG

The Elvis Presley record player. A 'Perpetuum Ebner Musical 5v Luxus' Record Player. Owned and used by Elvis Presley during the early part of his army service in Germany. In good used condition, complete with original operating instructions. Inherited by the present vendor from his wife, who was given it in person by Elvis Presley. Estimate: £1,000- £2,000 Given by Presley to Elizabeth (Ellen) Marschhäuser in 1959. Elizabeth Wincenzia (Ellen) Marschhäuser lived in Bad Nauheim, Germany. In 1957 she had holidayed in England, fallen in love and become engaged to a young Englishman. She returned to Germany and continued to work as a cashier at the PX on the American Army Base in Friedberg. Her marriage was set for April 1959. In 1958 Elvis Presley arrived in Germany for his National Service. He was stationed at Friedberg and decided to live off base in nearby Bad Nauheim with his father, grandmother and other members of his entourage. In early 1959 in a chance meeting at the Bad Nauheim Post Office, Ellen assisted Vernon Presley, Elvis's father. He was struggling with the language and as Ellen spoke fluent English she was able to translate for him. He invited Ellen to visit the Presley apartment as a thank you. She visited on a couple of occasions. On the second occasion there was a party and Elvis played records on the 5v Luxus and also played his guitar through the amplifier of the record player. Ellen spoke with Elvis over quite a long time and told him she was soon going to London to be married. Elvis expressed an interest in her forthcoming marriage in London stating he was hoping to visit there in the near future. Elvis offered the record player to Ellen as a gift, which she accepted. It remained in her possession until her death in 2010, when it was inherited by the vendor, her husband. Elizabeth Marschhäuser. Further background. As neither Elizabeth Marschhäuser nor Elvis Presley are alive and able to speak for themselves we wanted to get a clear picture of Ellen's character and therefore the veracity of her story. Our research into her background reveals a fascinating and charismatic woman. She was a well-travelled, educated woman of 36 when she met Elvis in 1959. She had been married and had an 18-year-old son. Her first husband (Stanley Marschhäuser) was an accomplished violinist who ran a popular orchestra. During the war, his orchestra was hired to entertain top ranking members of the Gestapo. Ellen accompanied her husband and would have met these officers. Her brother-in-law (Heinz Stouver) was a popular broadcaster & actor on Frankfurt radio. She is unlikely to have been particularly star-struck. She definitely was not an Elvis fan who spent hours waiting on his doorstep to catch a glimpse of him. Ellen held responsible jobs working for the American army, firstly an office based job in Bad Nauheim and secondly at the PX on Ray Barracks in Friedberg. She spoke excellent English. In later life in England she worked at the Press Club in Fleet St. We have photographs of her meeting the Queen and Queen Mother during her time at the Press Club. Friends and family still living hold her in very high regard. David Lay Frics have a national reputation for exposing fakers. We take this very seriously. We have carried out extensive research. Our client's story has been corroborated by sources in England and in Germany. We are entirely satisfied with our client's honesty and that the item is genuine. An incredibly rare collectors item with a wonderful provenance. Elvis remains to this day one of the most iconic and influential artists of the twentieth century. It is well documented that Elvis was extremely generous to his family, entourage and fans. Although it was an expensive item in 1959 it is not entirely surprising that he would make a gift of it to an attractive and engaging woman who had helped his father. David Lay Frics would like to thank the following for their kind assistance during the research of this item: Mr & Mrs Ivan Vickers, Marion Marschhäuser & Mariam Katongole.
