Where Elvis and Billlie Mae Smith Ate in Kingsport in 1955 - Jimmie's Steak House


This ad ran in 1945 when Jimmie's opened as Jimmie's Diner.



This ad ran in 1947 when a remodeled Jimmie's reopened as Jimmie's Steak House.



This ad appeared in the Kingsport Times News on July 28, 1954. This is what the place looked like when Elvis and Kingsport girl Billie Mae Smith dined there after his Civic Auditorium performance.
