This is an auction for an ORIGINAL copy of the 1957 release of Teddy Bear / Loving You released in the USA.

The record itself (47-7000 ) is in EXCELLENT- condition and retains a lot of it's natural sheen.

There are some light visible marks /scratches( nothing that can be felt though).

This is the RARE release WITHOUT the horizontal line and WITH the parentheses around the words (let me be your).

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 2016 as $75 in the condition it is in now (which i would say is EXCELLENT- / VERY GOOD+) for the sleeve alone!!!

This was Elvis' 1st  FULL COLOUR PICTURE SLEEVE with 2 GREAT DIFFERENT PHOTO'S .

This sleeve is 63 years old and in reasonable condition for the age.(see photos)

The sleeve has NO SPLITS or WRITING!

The only thing that stops this from grading higher is some light ringwear / creases and age discolouration.

That said this is an affordable collection filler until that mint $140 (£110) record and sleeve come along !!!

The record is now stored in a paper sleeve and the picture cover in a poly sleeve to prevent anymore wear to this great RARITY.

Overall this was still valued at about $100(£80) back in 2016 , so i would guess this would have to be at least £82.

I will start this at under a HALF of that!!

With a LOW START and NO RESERVE you might just get a genuine bargain.

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!)
