Description
This listing is for is for Elvis' EPA-747, with an early sleeve and envelope. There are actually two sleeves; one is a standard 7" X 7" sleeve with a flap on top. It has a few issues as follows: FRONT has a 1/2" left seam split where the flap joins the top, a 1/4" tear on the right side of the flap itself, and has some stains on the lower left as well as some smudges here and there. BACK is relatively clean, but has a 2" diagonal tear from the opening to the left edge. See pics. The larger envelope had the smaller sleeve tucked inside with the top and right edges of the envelope folded over to the size of the 7" sleeve. The heavier paper envelope has a flap, but it is tucked inside and I don't want to risk tearing it by unfolding it, besides, it might even have an envelope-gum flap and be stuck inside. The FRONT of the envelope has some irregular 2" white stain just below the center, and a small pink stain on the bottom of the /E/ in the word SHOES.There is a beginning seam-split of about 3/8" down the left side from the opening. The BACK is relatively clean with a few smudges and a slight water stain on the left top side. See pics. The vinyl is about a VG grade, with a few standard wispy hairline scratches, and clean labels.
I ship USPS media mail, or, as the seller wishes, but I do require a tracking/confirmation number for all packages in addition to the basic postage. The $4 mailing fee is all that can be listed via ebay, but it will be more as might be required for anywhere outside of the lower 48 states, or any additional shipping services beyond minimal media rate with tracking.
Insurance can be included in any handling fees.
If you want to pay any way other than Paypal, please contact me before the auction ends.
email me for any other concerns.
I have too many questions about the color of the printing on both items. I had not imagined there was a distinction to be made,
or I would have listed the color in the primary listing. To be clear: the printing on both the envelope and the sleeve is a DARK BLUE,
which seems a bit darker on the envelope, perhaps because it is on a heavier paper and less susceptible to fading.
