This item is not for sale. Gripsweat is an archive of past sales and auctions, none of the items are available for purchase.
What I’m offering is the RARE Sun pressing of the debut 45 by Elvis Presley titled That’s All Right (Mama) b/w Blue Moon Of Kentucky, issued on Sun 209 in 1954.
This is an original pressing indicated by the circular press marks in the label (see scans).
The 45 is in G- condition. It is rough. The record has many flaws including what appears to be very severe heat(?) damage on the A side, numerous scuffs and scratches, writing on the A side label, a small chip of the label missing at the center hole, and paper loss on the B side label.
Both sides of the 45 are very noisy during playback with the A side being extremely, extremely noisy due to a loud hiss from the the apparent heat damage and numerous clicks and pops. The A side also has a (stop) skip towards the end.
This copy is being sold as a filler copy and is primarily for someone who just wants to own an original Elvis Sun 45. With that said, I will not accept any refunds on this record due to condition. It’s rough, but hey it’s Elvis’ first record ever released, on Sun to boot.
Email me if you have any questions. I have been selling records since 1989 so you can rest assured that my grading is thorough and accurate. So bid with confidence.
