COMMENTS:

A really nice copy of this 1957 release from Elvis on a 1st pressing HMV Gold Label. These so rare come up in nice condition, as they were never bought with collecting in mind, just played for enjoyment. This one still retains its original sheen. Yes there are some light surface marks on both sides but they do not affect play. Very clean labels on both sides. A credit to any collection!

We always try to describe items accurately as our feedback rating shows and we always check condition under strong light. What we describe is what you get and our gradings are based on those in the Rare Record Price Guide (RRPG). If you want further information before bidding, please let us know and we will provide it. Customer satisfaction is very important. Also, we usually don’t show lots of pictures from every conceivable angle as this takes a long time to do and only gives extra profit to Ebay! If you want more photos before you bid, let us know and we will email you direct, but PLEASE allow enough time (1-2 days) before the auction end.

BEFORE BIDDING, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE AWARE OF THE CONDITIONS BELOW
