This is an auction for an ORIGINAL copy of the 1956 EP release of ELVIS PRESLEY - STRICTLY ELVIS released in the USA.

The record itself (EPA 994 dog on top)is in VERY GOOD condition and retains some of it's natural sheen.

There are quite a few visible marks/ scratches , however nothing too deep or drastic.

I have managed to play test this and although it plays with surface noise/hiss/pops/crackle there are NO SKIPS or JUMPS.

The centre labels are quite bright, However there is a small numbered sticker on both sides and a small pen mark on Nipper on one side.(see photos)

This is the RARE issue WITHOUT Horizontal Line.

This is also the 1st PRESSING with the matrix number of G2WH-7213 1S.

The THICK CARDBOARD picture sleeve is much sought after and was listed in a U.S guide book back in 2008 as $45 in the condition it is in now(which i would say is VERY GOOD+ )for the sleeve alone!!!

This sleeve is over 57 years old and is in reasonable condition for the age.

There are NO RIPS, TEARS or WRITING!(see photos)

The only thing that stops this grading higher is creases/scuff marks/ age discolouration and the start of a small seam split at the top opener(see photos)

This is a really affordable collection filler until that MINT £70+ copy comes along.

The record is also stored in a separate paper sleeve to prevent anymore wear to this sleeve!!

Overall 2 years ago this was valued at $60(£40+approx) .

I dont have a current price guide but i would say at least £45.

With a LOW START and NO RESERVE you might be able to grab yourself a bargain!!!
