[Joni Mabe, 07/04/2001]Shannon Shepherd's Jan 1997 El Dorado tip hints that "an Elvis Museum somewhere in the carolinas -- features a mysterious toenail found in the carpet at Graceland just after it opened."
The last time I saw the elusive "Elvis Toenail" was 5 or 6 years ago as part of Joni Mabe's travelling Elvis Shrine. It's mentioned, along with Elvis' wart, in her book.
