Also included: Elvis Presley autograph from about 1955
About the records:
Things you need to know:
I found these in a box of old family records. I am NOT a collector.
I have no idea how to grade an album (Good, Very Good, Average, Danger to society, etc.)
I also don't have a 78 rpm player so no idea on sound quality.
I am not trying to be evasive. Just honest.
They look good to me, what I would guess to be minor scratches but I can't see anything that would interfere with playing.
No chips, cracks, warps, etc. No sleeve.
I'll answer any question you might have but my resources are small.
NOTE: on the first Elvis 78 rpm I got questions I cannot answer. I don't have a player and can't locate one.
I don't see any scratches of note or anything that would cause a problem playing but can't test.
I am NOT an expert or collector.
It is not pristine. There is obviously some wear to the disk from handling.
In an effort to be fair and honest I'm posting two pictures of what I think are the worst sections of the disk.
The autograph
Elvis was in Houston for a concert with a number of other performers of that era. The autographs were collected in a standard, old fashion flip page autograph book.
I'll add the name of the club, when and location when I can find my notes.
Other autographs in that book:
Some are illegible:
Bud & Bud - the Hooper Twins, Floyd Tillman - dated New Year 1955
Smiling Jerry Jericho, James ?????, Jack Derrick, Tex Cherry and his Harmonica
Gla?? ??, Berl Bronr?, Johnny Barnes, Ken Grant - KNUZ Country Radio, Tommy Sands
George Jones, ?????? & Charlie, Bill Black, Scotty Moore
Elvis Presley
Biff Colley, Chuck Mayfield, Jimmie Lee Durden - KRTC
Tommie Blake, ?????? ????, Doc Levers
Some personal from friends.
The reserve is far under what I think this will sell for.
Payment must be made within 5 days.
I will provide insurance.
The autograph story:
I was born and raised in Houston, Tx
My dad was a big country and western fan
From old westerns to the music
He would go to live performances when he could and if there were multiple acts he would be there
There was a venue right down North Main street near 20th street accessible by the bus.
The name of the place was Cook's Hoedown ??
There was a big New Years show in 1955
Something happened and I got to go
Between groups and during intermissions everyone would kind of wander around in the front of the auditorium
This was a time when the entertainers would mingle with the audience and sign autographs
I was 7 years old and got carried around a lot, the cute kid got some extra attention.
Everyone was friendly. Elvis was like your neighbor.
