The owner of Tupelo Hardware, the store where Elvis' mom, Gladys, purchased her son's very first guitar, Mr. Booth had decided to sell the famous landmark which has since been purchased by the City of Tupelo who will convert the store into a museum downstairs, and a Visitor's Bureau with offices upstairs. Mr. Booth's son runs a new hardware store in town, leaving the original to history.
