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

The records themselves (EPB 1254 dog on top) are in EXCELLENT- / VERY GOOD+ condition retaining some of it's natural sheen with some visible marks/scratches (see photos)

The centre labels have NO WRITING!(see photos)

The THICK GATEFOLD CARDBOARD picture sleeve is much sought after and was listed in a U.S guide book back in 2012 as $250-275  in the condition it is in now (which i would say is VERY GOOD+ ) for the sleeve alone!!!

This hard to find gatefold sleeve is 61 years old and is in reasonable condition for the age.

The sleeve is the harder to find sleeve with the adverts on the rear for additional RCA Victor releases including Mambo by Perez Prado and the complete music from Gone With The Wind (see photos)

There are NO SPLITS, RIPS or TEARS(see photos)

The only things that stop this from grading even higher is some light ringwear/creases/scuff marks and some staining/age discolouration and a name written on the front near the P of Presley. (see photos)

That said , This is a really affordable addition to fill any collection until that Mint $450 records 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 approx. $325+(£208 approx) .I dont have a current price guide but i would say at least £255.

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