Description


I am with great sadness that I am selling my Elvis collection of singles and LP’s purchased as and when they were issued. I first started buying Elvis records in 1956 and purchased each one on issue over the years. All these records have had only one owner (ME) and are virtually as new.  All records play as they should, no skips, jumps etc

There are NO re-issues, subsequent compilations, etc------they are all the original real deal.

All of my collection will be listed for sale on Ebay, bit by bit, as this is an enormous task.

All were purchased new from record shops or direct from USA at point of original issue.

 

This is the original USA 1957 issue of 'Too Much'------RCA Victor 47-6800-------dog on top----no centre as was normal in USA

 

What makes this so rare is that on the 'B' side there is no song shown------it is blank (see Scan).  It should say 'Playing For Keeps'

 

I contacted Paul Lichter in Arizona, who in my opinion, knows more about Elvis records than anyone else on this earth and he has confirmed that this mispressing by RCA is highly collectable amongst Elvis purists and even he did not know this existed !!

 

Both sides play extremely well

 

The 'Too Much' label has slight stratches, but the record itself is fine and plays perfectly well---------no stratches on the record playing surface

 

I would add that 'Playing For Keeps' is indeed on the blank side

 

ALL OFFERS SERIOUSLY CONSIDERED

 

Please note that I am a lifelong Elvis collector, NOT a record dealer

 

All of my records are in excellent condition (unless stated) and have been treated with tender loving care since I bought them in the first place.

 

It is highly likely that this will NEVER come up again on Ebay
