Description
This is an auction for an Original copy of the HARD TO FIND 1956 EP release The Real Elvis released in the USA.
The record itself (EPA-940 dog on top) is in EXCELLENT- condition retaining some of it's natural sheen with minimal visible marks/scratches but nothing too deep or drastic.(see photos)
The centre labels have NO WRITING but do have a small numbered sticker on one side (see photos)
This also has the added advantage of being a 1st pressing as indicated by the 1s in the trail off.
The THICK CARDBOARD picture sleeve is much sought after and was listed in a U.S guide book back in 2016 as $55-60 in the condition it is in now(which i would say is VERY GOOD+) for the sleeve alone!!!
This sleeve is in reasonable condition for the age.
There are NO RIPS or TEARS (see photos)
The only things that stop this from grading even higher is some ringwear/scuff marks and some light writing on on the front and a small partial seam split on the bottom(see photos)
That said , This is a really affordable addition to fill any collection until that Mint $150 record and sleeve come along.
The record is also stored in a separate paper sleeve to prevent anymore wear to this RARE sleeve!!
Overall 2 years ago this was valued at $100 (£80 approx.)
I don't have a current price guide but I would say at least £85.
With a LOW START and NO RESERVE you might be able to grab yourself a bargain!!!
Please look at my other auctions for some more great Elvis USA picture sleeve lots.
I offer shipping discounts on multiple purchases.(please request total invoice when through bidding)
APOLOGIES FOR POSTAGE PRICE INCREASES BUT THIS IS DUE TO ROYAL MAIL RAISING COSTS AND EBAY TAKING 13% OF THE POSTAGE COSTS
