Description
#210 “Good Rockin’ Tonight” (1954)
and
#223 “Mystery Train” (1955)
#210 has the push marks on the label. #223 does not but that doesn't make it not original. According to one "expert" the only true way to tell the originals besides the push marks are the numbers in the trail off. The first four had 72 at the end and the last one has the number 20 at the end. On the original pressings these numbers were approximately half an inch away from the other numbers. On later pressings they are at least an inch away. These two have the numbers close together.
So they are original.
Now condition, the labels are pretty nice. #210 has what looks like the remnants of a sticker on it. I think it can be cleaned off but I'll leave that to the new owner.
The records themselves have lots of hairline scratches on them but when I played them they did not skip. I'm not saying there are no pops but they didn't skip. I haven't cleaned the records
So two of Elvis's original Sun records for sale!
