** I COMBINE SHIPPING! ** Should you win more than one item in my auctions, please do not pay until your invoice has been updated, reflecting combined shipping.
My offerings will be a bit slow in coming for this week due to me having been caught up with “Record Store Day” this past Saturday. By Tuesday, April 15th, there will be an ample amount of fresh Elvis material up for your viewing pleasure.
ELVIS PRESLEY – KING CREOLE (LSP-1884) FIRST STEREO PRESSING from 1962 with SCARCE FIRST COVER DESIGN, WITHOUT “(e)” ON FRONT!
RECORD: VG with numerous light hairline scuffs on both sides. There are no scratches that can be felt with the fingertip! This 1962 First Pressing should play well enough to enjoy, but with perhaps some minor surface noise between tracks or in softer areas of the music. The “Staggered STEREO” labels retain great eye-appeal with just some light spindle marks and wear about the spindle hole. This label design was used by RCA Victor for only about two years, before being replaced by the “White Top” labels in late 1964. The matrix numbers end with 3S/3S.
COVER: VG+ with a lower seam split of 2 inches where there is also evidence of some moisture having been in that area in the past. A miniscule split is seen at the upper right corner tip. This is the very first cover design which has no “(e)” following the “LSP-1884” at the upper left corner on the front. It is present on the back side, however. There is only a hint of ring wear noticed on this cover, though there is some minor surface scuffing noticed to the center on both sides. There is no tape, writing or staple holes anywhere on this cover. The original store (“The Crescent”) price sticker of $2.97 remains fully affixed on the lower right corner of the back side. The original gray “RCA Victor” inner sleeve is included.
GOOD LUCK!
All of the records in my listings are U.S. pressings unless otherwise stated. Payment is expected within 5 (Five) days from close of auction via PAY PAL ONLY – NO EXCEPTIONS, PLEASE. I normally ship within 3 (Three) business days from close of auction, but please allow a little extra time in the event of a holiday.
Returns are accepted if you are not completely satisfied with your item. I stand behind everything sold here on eBay! I strongly believe that my grading of records is spot-on, but we’re all human and something may occasionally be missed upon inspection. I will do my best to ensure customer satisfaction.
All records are shipped in the correct cardboard folding mailers with the record separated from the cover, then inserted together within a clear polyvinyl sleeve, then sandwiched between two sheets of cardboard filler pads within the mailer to ensure optimum protection.
2025 marks 48 years of experience for me in this wonderful hobby. I specialize in Elvis Presley because he is "The King".
