The Sound of Leadership, 1956 Promo Box Set!

"Burning Love Records"

 Item:  "The Sound of Leadership" Box Set Complete

Catalog Number:  SPD-19

Condition Check:  Everything MINT

Date of Issue:   June, 1956

Today's Auctions:  I have brought this one back after a few buyers requests, however, this time I am cancelling the reserve and leaving it up to you bidders.  This is one of the rarest Elvis items out there, only given away to company executives at RCA at a meeting in Miama, Florida in 1956.  Contains Elvis from his dramatic year of 1956!  This baby is clean, see description below.  The great SPD-19!

Closer Look At the Item:   I have offered some signfiicant Elvis collectables over the past month, and this equals or surpasses any of those on rarity.  In June of 1956 RCA had their company convention in Miami, Florida, and as a special gift for selected guests a box set was created featuring many of the RCA stars, not the least of which was "Elvis Presley".  This was an 8 record box set and inside the box you would find disc inserts to separate the records from one another as well as a "Sound of Leadership" insert.  Each insert featured items from the RCA catalog.  The records were from various RCA artists, but the most important record was record Eight, which on the back side featured Elvis singing "Heartbreak Hotel".  This is the most highly value early box set with Elvis on it ever made, the price guides vary on value, from $2,000 low to $3,500 high.  No matter what, this is a incredibly rare complete box set.  As for condition, everything here is mint, it strongly appears the records have never been played and the inserts are all mint, the box is mint, that is incredible because it usually was prone to the most damage.  This box set is an incredible piece, really it would be well suited to sit behind one of the display cases at Graceland, it is in that kind of shape.  I am pricing this at a fair amount considering the incredible rarity and condition of this set, not sure there is a better one in the world today.  Sorry, not enough picture space to show each record both sides, but they are all there and they are all mint, first picture is the Elvis disc.

Note on Packaging:  All items are in shipped in mylar resealable sleeves, the  finest in the industry today.  Also the records are not packaged inside the original sleeves, instead packaged separately in a generic sleeve so no damage to the sleeve occurs in transit.

Rating Guide:

Mint (M):  Perfect in every way, looks to have never been played, should have that look just as it did when you pulled the record from the new cover at the time of original purchase.

Mint Minus (M-):  A nearly perfect record and cover.  This item should show no readily visible signs of wear,  covers and sleeves should have no more than nearly invisible rings or other signs of slight wear and vinyl should still be completely glossy and shiney, just the very lightest hint of wear if it is tilted to very bright light. 

Very Good Plus (VG+):  This record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled carefully by the previous owner.  Record surfaces will show some light signs of paper scuffing or light scratches, that don't affect the listening experience.  Slight warps that do not affect sound are OK.  This disc should still contain much of its original luster and sheen.  The covers and picture sleeves should also be in very nice shape, they may have light ring wear or other signs of wear, may have a small cut out hole, indention or stamping present.  Also there can be non obvious writing on the paper goods.

Very Good (VG):  Many of the defects found in the VG+ record and cover will be present but more pronounced in the VG item.  Surface noise will be evident, although the record should play through without skipping or repeating.  Groove wear will now be noticable, scuffing and light scratching will be appearent, a scratch now can be felt with a fingernail.  Labels will be marred with tape or tape residue, stickers or descret writing.  The same will be true for the LP cover or picture sleeve.

Good (G):  Good does not mean bad!  A record in good condition should be placed on a turntable and it should play through, all though the surface noise will be evident.  A cover or picture sleeve will have seam splitting, especially on the bottom seam or spine.  Also there will be noticable ring wear caused by the presence of the record.  The defects will start to overwhere this item.

Fair (F) or Poor (P):  This record will be cracked, badly warped, and will not play through without skipping or repeating.  The picture sleeeve or LP cover will show lots and lots of wear, the seams will be split on all three sides barely able to hold the record.  This item will appear near valueless, unless of course it is a rarity that may not be seen again.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
