ELVIS PRESLEY - “FROM MEMPHIS TO VEGAS” (LSP-6020) - A RARE ORANGE LABEL, RIGID VINYL SET WITH CORRECTED CREDITS ON "WORDS" (R., B. and M. Gibb) & "SUSPICIOUS MINDS" (Mark James)! INCLUDES TWO BONUS PHOTOS!            RECORDS: NM- with original glossy surfaces on both records! On Record 1, there are just a few very light paper sleeve scuffs that will have no effect on the audible performance. Only minor evidence of this album ever having been played is seen under a bright light. Record 2 is full NM. This album was originally released in November of 1969 with an error in the songwriter credits for "Words". The error shows Tommy Boyce-Bob Hart, where it should have been credited to R., B. and M. Gibb. "Suspicious Minds" was also erroneously credited to Frances Zambon. This too, was corrected later showing the true songwriter, Mark James. This set is the much harder-to-find, Corrected Credit issue! To put the value of this album into perspective, the original "Error Credit" issue is valued at just $50 in NM, according to Jerry Osborne's "Presleyana VIII" (2017). This "Corrected Credit" issue is valued at $275 in like condition in the same publication! This applies to Orange Label copies ONLY - ALL Tan Label and subsequent issues show the corrected songwriter credits!These Orange Labels are beautiful, NM! This is an Indianapolis pressing with matrix numbers for Record 1 ending with 1S/2S and 2S/2S for Record 2.    COVER: NM- with full original shrink wrap! There is a 4-1/2-inch tear in the shrink that is along the upper edge that also shows some spotted scuffing or chips on that edge of the cover. This is the reason for the "minus" in the grade. Of course, the shrink wrap has protected this cover against any ring wear or surface scuffing. The corners are sharp, but with just minor wear on the tips at the upper right (open end). There are no saw cuts on this cover and it is very difficult to locate these covers with the shrink wrap still present!
  INNER SLEEVES:  The original "ELVIS' Great LP Catalog" (40D) sleeves from the era. 
BONUS PHOTOS: VG++ (EXC) for both! There is the common record lip impression on the left-hand photo in my pictures (Photo "a"). The right-hand photo (Photo "d") has only light record lip impression, but also some record label impression that is seen in the area of Elvis' ear. Neither photo has any thumb-tack holes, creases, bends or writing. However, the lower left corner tip on Photo "a" shows some softness. The back sides are super clean with no check marks, stains or other blemishes! By the time that the labels were corrected on this album in late 1969, the supply of "Bonus Photos" had become exhausted. Therefore, I am including these photos with this set that did not originally come with them. These highly attractive Bonus Photos definitely compliment this set!
GOOD LUCK!  

  I COMBINE SHIPPING! $4 for the first LP, then 25 cents for each additional LP. International Shipping has resumed for select countries. Please do not ask me to check "Gift" instead of "Merchandise" or to declare a low value on the Customs Form!  I ship all records in the CORRECT cardboard record mailers, specifically designed for shipping these historic and tough-to-replace treasures to your doorstep in the same condition as when they leave my hands. USPS has been known to find a way to bend these boxes on occasion, hard as that may be to believe, so items valued at $30 or more will be shipped automatically with insurance at no additional cost to the buyer. ALL of my records are U.S. pressings unless otherwise stated.  Payment is expected within 5 (Five) days from close of auction via PAY PAL ONLY – NO EXCEPTIONS, PLEASE. I normally ship within three business days from close of auction, but please allow a little extra time in the event of a holiday.  Returns are accepted if you are accepted if you are not completely satisfied with your item. I strongly believe that my grading of records is spot-on, but we’re all human and something may occasionally be missed upon inspection. I will do my best to ensure customer satisfaction. 2018 marks 40 years of experience for me in this wonderful hobby. I specialize in Elvis Presley.
