Description

I have three original Elvis SUN 78's on ebay this week. This one is SUN 209 "That's All Right" with flipside "Blue Moon Of Kentucky". There are four photos, two of each side. Visually the record is VG- but the scratches are superficial, not deep and can not be felt with your fingers. It plays much better than it looks. I have lightly cleaned the record but I feel it could use a deep cleaning which I will leave to the winning bidder. I am sure there is a fair amount of grime still in the grooves that can be removed. A deep cleaning would eliminate more surface noise. I would play grade it now as VG. There is the usual amount of surface noise that would be expected on a record of this age and era but it is still a great listen. There are no skips and no loud pops. There are no chips on the edge or cracks. The fidelity is excellent and that slapback bass and echo on "Blue Moon" is fantastic. I love the sound of these old 78's. I know these copies bring a nice price so I am trying my best to give an acurate description of it's condition. I absolutely guarantee this to be an original 1950's pressing. The last copy of this record to sell on ebay brought over $600. The record comes with a heavy paper sleeve. It will be carefully packed in bubble wrap and a hard box. Winning bidder will pay exact priority mail + insurance costs. I DO NOT accept paypal. I accept money orders and personal checks. I wait for personal checks to clear. No overseas bidders on this item.
