Description
I HAVE RECEIVED SEVERAL INQUIRIES ON THIS 78. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT IS IS. VERY FEW PEOPLE , DOES. SO, REGARDLESS OF WHAT ANY PRICE GUIDE OR ELVIS GURUS SAY, HERE ARE SOME FACTS, ON THIS ITEM. IT WAS PRESSED IN , IN , BY . THERE WERE ONLY MADE . HINT: IT IS 2,600 TIMES RARER, THAN THE BEATLES BUTCHER COVER! MANY ELVIS COLLECTORS BLUNDER AROUND, HUNTING "RARE" ELVIS STUFF. IF THEY DO FIND A TRULY "RARE" ITEM, THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS, & ARE USUALLY BROKE, FROM BUYING STUFF THAT AIN'T "RARE" -- BUT PRICE GUIDES -- SAY THEY ARE. MORE FACTS: THIS 78 ORIGINALLY CAME IN A BOX SET OF 12, 78's. I REMEMBER SOME OF THE OTHER 78's IN THIS SET. "MY TRUE LOVE", BY JACK SCOTT -- "BLUE JEAN BOP", BY VINCENT -- "PEGGY SUE", BY HOLLY -- "BABY TALK", BY JAN & DEAN -- "I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND", BY THE BEATLES -- "PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON", BY PETER, PAUL & MARY. YEP! THAT'S WHAT I SAID "PUFF THE MAGIC DRAGON". YOU MAY WONDER WHY THESE PARTICULAR TITLES WERE CHOSEN?? THE ANSWER IS VERY SIMPLE. THE PERSON THAT MADE THEM, LIKED THESE SONGS! AND SINCE HE OWNED A 78 RECORD PRINTING PRESS -- HE MADE THEM, FOR HIS ROCKOLA JUKEBOX! I WAS GIVEN , TWO OF THESE BOX SETS, BY THE PERSON THAT MADE THEM. THE REMAINING SETS WERE TAKEN & TRADED , AT A JUKEBOX CONVENTION, IN L.A. AS MY SISTER-IN-LAW , WAS AN ELVIS NUT, I BROKE UP THE SETS & GAVE HER THE TWO ELVIS DISKS, FROM THE SETS. ONE OF THESE WAS STOLEN FROM HER BY , WHO THEN SOLD IT TO JERRY OSBORNE , WHO LISTED IT, IN ONE OF HIS MANY PRICE GUIDES , ALTHOUGH HE HAD NO CLUE OF WHAT IT WAS, OR WHERE IT CAME FROM! WHEN MY SISTER-IN LAW DIED, THIS 78 WAS PASSED ON TO HER SISTER , WHO, TEN YEARS LATER, RETURNED IT TO ME. THESE ARE THE FACTS, FOLKS. I KNOW -- 'CAUSE I WAS THERE. NOW, FOR THE PERSON THAT BUYS THIS, I WILL GLADLY FILL IN THE XXXX's. EVERYBODY ELSE CAN JUST LOOK AT THE PIC, AS YOU WILL NEVER SEE ANOTHER ONE OFFERED, FOR SALE. SOMETIMES, EVEN EBAY "WORLD'S LARGEST RUMMAGE SALE", HAS A UNIQUE ITEM OFFERED. BUT USUALLY, THE PERSON OFFERING IT -- DOESN'T KNOW WHAT IT IS. THAT IS WHY SOMETIMES, ITEMS ARE REALLY, "RARE". THANKS FOR LOOKING. RODGER HARRIS
