black velvet elvis

anything old and exceeding tacky, yet somehow still compelling and cool. Originally, a painting of "The King" done on black velvet using da-glo paint. Any preNAFTA kitsch sourced from Tijuana street vendors.

Dude: "Wow! That plaster pink flamingo is bitchin'! I want it!"
Bernie: "Yeah, that's a 'black velvet elvis' if I've ever seen one!"
