ELVIS PRESLEY – ELVIS PRESLEY (LPM-1254) FIRST PRESSING with LIGHT PINK “ELVIS” COVER AND “P.D.” CREDIT FOR “JUST BECAUSE”!
RECORD: VG- with numerous light scuffs and scratches. This scarcer Indianapolis pressing has been test-played in its entirety and there are no skips or repeats, although there is some expected surface noise. The labels are without any tape, stickers or writing, but do show many light spindle marks as well as some wear. This is Elvis’ historic debut album, released in March of 1956 and includes the scarce “P.D.” credit for “Just Because” (Side 1, Track 6). The song should have been credited to Bob Shelton – Joe Shelton - Sid Robin, as seen on most other copies of this album. The matrix numbers end with 3S/1S, respectively.
COVER: VG+ with no seam splits! This in itself, is rather scarce as the majority of these original covers have suffered at least one seam split. However, there is what appears to be a grease stain on the back side (please see all photos). If not for this, the cover would easily grade a solid VG++ (EXC). There is no tape or staple holes anywhere on this cover and the ring wear is so light that it is hardly worth the mention. The spine is fully legible, the upper and lower edges solid and smooth and the corners are all sharp! The original glassine (or “onion skin”) inner sleeve is included, though there is some tattering. The record will be housed in a plain white sleeve for shipping purposes.
GOOD LUCK!
All of the records in my listings are U.S. pressings unless otherwise stated. Payment is expected within 5 (Five) days from close of auction via PAY PAL ONLY – NO EXCEPTIONS, PLEASE. I normally ship within 3 (Three) business days from close of auction, but please allow a little extra time in the event of a holiday.
Returns are accepted if you are not completely satisfied with your item. I strongly believe that my grading of records is spot-on, but we’re all human and something may occasionally be missed upon inspection. I will do my best to ensure customer satisfaction.
2024 marks 46 years of experience for me in this wonderful hobby. I specialize in Elvis Presley because he is "The King".
