This is an auction for an ORIGINAL copy of the 1972 release of He Touched Me / Bosom Of Abraham released in the USA.
THIS WAS NOT RELEASED IN THE U.K AS A SINGLE!!!
The record itself (74-0651 ORANGE LABEL) is visually in EXCELLENT- condition.
There are some light marks/scratches.(nothing deep or drastic though)
The labels are CRISP,CLEAN and have NO WRITING.(see photos)
The picture sleeve is much sought after and was listed in a U.S guide book back in 2008 as $135 (£90+)in the condition it is in now, (which i would say is VERY GOOD+ ) for the sleeve alone!!!
This sleeve is 43 years old and shows a few signs of ageing.
There are NO SPLITS, RIPS,TEARS or WRITING.(see photos)
The only thing that stops this from grading even higher is some ringwear/creases/ scuff marks (all very common with this release).
There is also some slight damage from where a price label has been removed on the Bosom Of Abraham side.(see photos)
That all said this is a nice affordable addition to any collection until that mint $250 (£160+) comes along!
This sleeve does not come up for auction very often!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Overall 2 years ago this was valued at $170(£110+ approx) .I dont have a current price guide but i would say at least £115+
With a starting price at under a half of that you might be able to grab yourself a bargain!!!
Please look at my other auctions for some more great Elvis USA picture sleeve lots.
I offer discounted shipping on multiple purchases. ( please request a toatal invoice when through bidding)
APOLOGIES FOR POSTAGE PRICE INCREASES BUT THIS IS DUE TO ROYAL MAIL RAISING COSTS AS OF APRIL 2014!!!
