Description
ELVIS PRESLEY'S RAREST RCA VICTOR EP SET:
HISTORY: 7x7" CARDBOARD TRIPLE COVER CONTAINS THREE RECORDS ON THE RCA VICTOR LABEL. IN 1956 RCA MARKETED TWO DIFFERENT MODELS OF AN ELVIS PRESLEY VICTROLA RECORD PLAYER. BUYERS OF THE $32.95 MODEL WERE GIVEN THE DOUBLE EP SPD-22 WHILE THE BONUS FOR BUYERS OF THE HIGHER PRICED $47.95 MODEL WERE GIVEN THIS EVEN MORE RARE AND DESIRABLE EP SPD-23.
IN OTHER WORDS THIS COVER AND DISCS WERE ONLY GIVEN AWAY WHEN YOU BOUGHT THE HIGHEST END VICTROLA PLAYER FOR WHAT WAS THEN A LOT OF MONEY, BECAUSE ONLY A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE COULD AFFORD THE HIGH END VICTROLA, IT IN TIME, MADE THIS ONE OF THE RAREST ELVIS RECORDS/COVER.
CONDITION IS VG+
THIS IS ONE OF THE NICEST COPIES OUT THERE, THE SPINE IS 100% INTACT, NO SPLITS OR WEAR ON THE SPINE. THERE ARE A COUPLE VERY SMALLSEAM SPLITS, ONE ON THE BOTTOM MIDDLE ABOUT 1/4" AND VERY UN-NOTICEABLE, AND ONE ON THE TOP ABOUT A 1/4". THERE IS A SLIGHT CREASE IN THE UPPER RIGHT HAND SIDE OF JACKET, BUT IS NOT VERY NOTICEABLE. THE INSIDE OF THE TRI-FOLDERIS CLEAN. THERE IS A LITTLE FOXING HERE AND THERE, BUT FOR THE MOST PART STILL WHITE. THERE IS NO WRITING ANYWHERE, OVERALL A VERY CLEAN COPY.
ALL RECORDS PLAY THROUGH WITH NO JUMPS OR SKIPS, NO CRACKS, SOME BACKGROUND NOISE, NO WRITING ON LABELS.
OVERALL THIS IS A REAL NICE JACKET. THESE DO NOT COME UP VERY OFTEN, BECAUSE THEY ARE QUITE SIMPLY ONE OF THE RAREST AND MOST SOUGHT AFTER ELVIS EP SETS..
