ELVIS PRESLEY – ELVIS’ CHRISTMAS ALBUM (LPM-1951) RARE ALL-SILVER PRINT “MONO” HOLLYWOOD PRESSING from 1963!

RECORD: VG with pleasing, glossy surfaces. However, there are many light scratches and scuffs, none of which can be felt with the fingertip. This Hollywood pressing has been fully tested and there were no skips or annoying repeats; just some sporadic “ticks” and general surface noise. These all-silver print “MONO” and “STEREO” reissues of earlier “Long Play” records are very scarce! They are always in demand by collectors as they were pressed for only a short time before RCA Victor changed their logo to white print in October of 1964. The MONO labels are clean and beautiful, but have the original owner’s name written in ball-point pen on both sides and the writing is barely noticeable to the casual observer. The matrix numbers end with 10S/13S on this rarity.

COVER: VG++ (EXC) showing very light surface scuffing from contact with other albums over the years. There are no actual sea splits, though there is a 1-inch upper central edge break from the record shifting firmly into an upward direction. The spine is fully legible, though there is some minor wear at the corner tips. A beautiful, highly presentable cover with no writing, staple holes or unwanted stickers. The original gray “RCA Victor” inner sleeve is included.

GOOD LUCK!

First and foremost, I do NOT practice the use of "file photos" because I do not believe in it. Using file photos can be misleading to unsuspecting buyers to believe that they will receive an item superior to that which they will receive upon purchase. All of the records in my listings 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 3 (Three) business days from close of auction, but please allow a little extra time in the event of a holiday.

All records are shipped in the correct cardboard folding mailers with the record separated from the cover, then inserted together within a clear polyvinyl sleeve, then sandwiched between two sheets of cardboard filler pads within the mailer to best protection.

Returns are accepted if you are not completely satisfied with your item. I stand behind everything sold here on eBay! 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.

2024 marks 46 years of experience for me in this wonderful hobby. I specialize in Elvis Presley because he is "The King".
