Looks more like a picture of a waxworks dummy of Elvis.

Konica Long Life 100 paper was first produced @ 1985. They made it the next 25 years or so.

Just as an aside for your amusement.

Years ago I used to live in Gt Yarmouth, where we had an attraction that achieved cult status as the world’s worst wax museum… “Louis Tussaud’s House of Wax” (named after Madame Tussaud’s great grandson, although I think it had no real family connection).

It was well worth the entrance fee because you would soon be helpless with laughter at the exhibits. Here are their renditions of Elvis and Stallone.

It gets better. Here’s Richard Nixon and John Lennon.

And my all-time favourite… Cliff Richard.

Sadly it closed in 2012 and the entire collection was snapped up by a mystery buyer in the Czech Republic.

Good gawd, looks like school projects.......If you hadn't put the IDs I doubt I would have figured them all out.

If a Dummy , I Don't think Elvis.

The Hair & Books under his Arm would Not be how a wax Museum would Depict Him.

it appears to depict a student. So I'm doubting it even being wax.

more likely, just a student who was caught on camera at a serious moment,
where he didn't have time to smile, or even react.

I visited Madame Tussauds in Las Vegas about 2 or 3 years ago. I thought the wax figures of notables there looked pretty realistic.
