Description

Offered together for collectors are... Christmas With Elvis (EPA 4340) AND...
Elvis' Christmas Album (LPM 1951).

Both are original 1958 U.S. releases, with the LP showing the rare Army photos on the back cover slick. This original 1958
issue was the only such cover, released for Elvis' first Christmas in the Service.

The EP cover grades a strong VG+, probably better by most standards, with no seam splits or writing of any kind.
Cover slick displays well, centered and flat to the edges and corners. Shows expected age and gentle wear, with the original
fold-over price tag remaining on the back, light glue residue from the price tag opposite front, and a small, light tear next to
the price tag on the back. Overall a very nice cover, about an 8.

The EP vinyl also grades VG+ or better. Strong labels free of any stray markings, no significant warping or deep scratches.
Plays through without skipping. Again about an 8 by strict grading standards.

The LP cover will grade at VG+. A nice example front and back with only light surface wear, again free of any stray markings.
Shows moderate edgewear and does have a 2" seam split bottom middle. Not a museum piece, but for most collectors a keeper copy.
I'd call this one a 7, maybe slightly above.

And lastly, the LP vinyl grades consistently with the entire package at a strong VG+. Nice long play labels, no writing, just very light
spindle wear showing under bright light. Flat and rigid with no major scratches, and retains much of its original sheen.
Once again, an 8.
