Description
Rare copy! No insert. Listing only includes what is shown in the photos. This item is the rare transitional back with the "several rehearsal" text, but without the "RE" printed from 1958 (see below for info)
A copy of LPM-1707 with this label, the first cover without the RE on back, and original insert sold on eBay for $223.50 including shipping on January 24, 2012 (eBay reference #: 270895580638)
While it was not professionally graded, I'd definitely say that the record, at the very least is VG+. No chips, cracks, deep scratches, etc that takes away from the rich sound. Cover has some staining in the lower right (front) corner and lower left (back) corner. Back cover also has the word "No" written above "Loving You" and under "(Let me Be Your) Teddy Bear"

Cover Back: Catalog number upper right corner. Contents two rows across the top. Three columns of text. Title and artist centered across the top. The first release March 21, 1958 has the number LPM-1707 with "thirty-one grueling" text (first column, bottom), a transitional back has LPM-1707 with "several rehearsal" text (first column, bottom), and a later 1958 pressing has LPM-1707 RE (upper right) with "several rehearsal" text (first column, bottom).
Disc: Long Play. Black label, All print on label print is silver. "NEW ORTHOPHONIC" HIGH FIDELITY on right side. (3/1958) Credits last name only. All tracks with from the film credits are preceded by songwriter credits.
