ELVIS PRESLEY - "GIRLS! GIRLS! GIRLS!" (LSP-2621) - FIRST PRESSING WITH RARE 1963 PHOTO CALENDAR!

RECORD:  VG+ with retaining full, original gloss, although there is a smattering of very light paper sleeve scuffs and some surface scratches. These are very minor and should not impede the listening enjoyment. This record should play great! The labels are highly attractive and exhibit the eye-appeal that Hollywood delivers best. I cannot even detect a single spindle mark! The matrix numbers end with 5S/5S. 

COVER:  VG+ with some light edge & corner wear. The ring wear is very light and barely even noticeable to the casual observer. There are absolutely no seam splits, which is rare in itself for this particular cover. There is no tape, writing or staple holes. A fully original cover! 

PHOTO CALENDAR: EXCELLENT! There were actually THREE different calendars made for this album in 1962. This one is right in the middle for being the most scarce. The calendar showing a Christmas theme is the most rare. According to Jerry Osborne's "Presleyana VII", the only calendar that was actually inserted into the album cover at the pressing plants was the one depicting Elvis' other albums and 45 E.P.'s, which is the least rare. "Presleyana VII" values that more common calendar at $250 in Near Mint condition. The other two were distributed by record stores upon purchase of the album. This calendar features a list of all of Elvis' 45 RPM's to 1962 with the heading "Elvis' Golden Single Records" inside of a red rectangle. There are no signs of this calendar ever having been hung. There is no writing or pinholes or tears. There are, however, a couple of bend marks, to include the upper right-hand corner and a short area just beneath that along the edge. The back side shows just some very light stains and foxing from age. Overall, a beautiful Elvis collectible!  

INNER SLEEVE:  The original RCA Victor gray inner sleeve from the era ("The World's Greatest Artists Are On RCA Victor Records"). 

GOOD LUCK!
