Private planes owned by the late superstar Elvis Presley are now up for sale. Two jets named “Lisa Marie” and “Hound Dog II” designed by the King of rock and roll himself will go into auction at Julien’s Auctions in Beverly Hills, California.

The two jets will be offered together to bidders and are expected to fetch between $10 million and $15 million, the auction house said on Friday. The planes have been on display at the Presley’s Memphis, Tennessee estate for the past three decades.

Presley bought the Convair 880 jet from Delta Air Lines in 1975, two years before his death at age 42, for $250,000. He named it “Lisa Marie” after his daughter.

He purchased the eight-to-10 passenger “Hound Dog II,” a Lockheed Jetstar, also in 1975 for about $900,000 while waiting on the refurbishment of the “Lisa Marie.”
