Actually, I’ve got something very similar to this downstairs in my storage room that I’ve had since childhood — except that it’s lit up at the top by a small nightlight bulb rather than being on black velvet. He’s also wearing a lei, which means it was taken during his “Aloha From Hawaii” concert he did on January 14, 1973 before he gained the weight but after he started wearing the flashy jumpsuits. Here’s what my picture looks like (just scroll down to the part that says Broadcast; it’s on the right side):

I don’t think I have ever seen anything that speaks “hick” more than those velvet “paintings”.
