Who are these people & why are they having such a good time?

RCA Records sent this photo along to prove they had to get tough while shipping Elvis Aron Presley, their latest Elvis release, an 8-record set of mostly unreleased material. Hi-jackers, RCA claimed on silver-coated (expensive!) paper, would be too tempted otherwise.

Well...maybe so. But we think Ampersand readers can guess what's really going on, what these four suspicious people are saying and/or doing. That's why we're declaring a caption contest! Think it up, write it down, send it off to: Truth Consultant, Ampersand, 1680 N. Vine, Suite 201, Hollywood, California, 90028. Entries must be postmarked by October 15, 1980.

Truth Consultant will pick the best five and we'll print 'em. The absolute best, according to T.C., will win a copy of Elvis Aron Presley -- an expensive little conversation piece including 87 performances by El and a 20-page booklet of historical info and rare photographs -- courtesy of RCA Records and Ampersand. Remember...you read it here recently.
