This is an auction for an Original copy of the HARD TO FIND 1956 EP release ELVIS PRESLEY  released in the USA.

The record itself (EPA-830 dog on top) is in VERY GOOD / VERY GOOD+ condition with some visible marks/scratches.(nothing too deep or drastic though)

The centre labels have NO WRITING , however do have some ringwear/rubbing and a varnish blob on one side(see photos)

The label has been mispressed on side 2 with the label going into the trail off.

This is the 1st pressing with the stamped numbers G2-WH3462-1s / G2 WH3463-1s

This is also the RARE issue WITHOUT SILVER LINE!

The THICK CARDBOARD picture sleeve is much sought after and was listed in a U.S guide book back in 2008 as $60  in the condition it is in now(which i would say is VERY GOOD+ / VERY GOOD )for the sleeve alone!!!

This sleeve is 58 years old and is still in reasonable condition for the age..

There are NO TEARS and the colours are still reasonably bright(see photos)

The only things that stop this from grading even higher is some ringwear/scuff marks and some initials written on the top at the front. Although there are no seam splits there is a part of the bottom starting to frey (see photos)

That said , This is a really affordable addition to fill any collection until that mint record and sleeve come along!!.

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

Overall 2 years ago this was valued at $80(£52 approx) .I dont have a current price guide but i would say at least £55.

THIS REALLY IS A HARD TO FIND TO SLEEVE!!!

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

PLEASE REMEMBER OVERALL CONDITION IF/WHEN PLACING A BID!!
