Elvis Presley
Love Me Tender + Let Me b/w Poor Boy + We’re Gonna Move
RCA EPA 4006
This item features a very rare pressing of this record, the 45 has the orange RCA label that was used from 1969 to 1974. The record was custom pressed for a Midwest retailer circa 1970 and it has been estimated that approximately only 1,000 copies in this form exist. RCA pressed this disk in the Indianapolis plant and used their remainder EP PS stock to sleeve the record which explains why the PS is copyrighted 1956. The EP PS has about a 3 inch seam split at the bottom and about a 1.5 inch seam split at the top, both from the age of the sleeve, but the real value of this item is in the extremely rare issue of this disk with the orange label. I am grading the PS as VG+ because of the seam splits but the record grades as no less than NM as is Unplayed. The PS shows Elvis leaning on a rail fence and the reverse has promotional information about the film.
This 45 came out of a warehouse inventory of a major US record distributor of the period.
