This is an auction for a RARE ORIGINAL copy of the 1957 single Playing For Keeps / Too Much released in the USA.
The record itself (47-6800 dog on top )is in VERY GOOD condition and retains some of it's natural sheen.
There are quite a few visible marks/scratches (nothing too deep or drastic)
The labels have NO WRITING.(see photos)
This is the rare version WITHOUT HORIZONTAL LINE.
The picture sleeve is much sought after and was listed in a U.S guide book back in 2008 as $50 in the condition it is in now(which i would say is VERY GOOD+ / VERY GOOD).
The sleeve has a few flaws which stops this from grading higher.
The things that stops this from grading higher is some creases , scuff marks/ringwear /discolouration, a partial seam split on the bottom and a name written on the bottom on the rear(see photos)
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(£39 approx) . I dont have a current price guide but i would say at least £40.
With a LOW START and NO RESERVE you might be able to grab yourself a bargain!!!
This will make an affordable addition to any collection until that £85+MINT copy comes along!Please look at my other auctions for some more great Elvis USA picture sleeve lots.
I offer shipping discounts on multiple purchases! (Please request total invoice when through bidding!)
APOLOGIES FOR POSTAGE PRICE INCREASES BUT THIS IS DUE TO ROYAL MAIL RAISING COSTS AS OF APRIL 2014
