IMAGES OF THE KING™

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP ELVIS TRIBUTE ARTIST CONTEST

In 1987 the King’s veterinarian Edward “Doc” Franklin made the modern ETA community a reality when he established the event known as IMAGES. The event, which includes an internationally recognized ETA contest and showcases, has crowned over thirty World Champions who have gone on to be recognized as the top ETAs performing today. As part of our goal to return Images of the King to its former glory, we have developed the following pledge in order to outline our intent:

THE IMAGES OF THE KING PLEDGE

• We pledge to always put the fans first, it’s because of them that we do what we do.

• We pledge to treat the performers, be they headliners or contestants, with respect and dignity.

• We pledge that our contests will always be fair and that our judges will be as professional, knowledgeable and as prepared as possible.

• We pledge that we will treat anyone producing an Images of the KingTM preliminary, our Sponsors and
  Patrons, as partners.

• We pledge to treat our champions as champions, promote them and help them advance their careers.

• We pledge to #BringBackTheKing. Celebrating his life, legacy and music is the reason we have these events in the first place.
