ELVIS PRESLEY – ELVIS’ CHRISTMAS ALBUM (LOC-1035) FIRST PRESSING from 1957 - BEAUTIFUL COPY!

RECORD: VG with clean, glossy surfaces! Although there are many light scuffs and non-feelable scratches, this Rockaway pressing played very well upon full test. Of course, there were some “ticks” on the softer tracks, there were no skips or worse, repeats, throughout play! RCA Victor’s “New Orthophonic High Fidelity” remains resilient on this scarce record! The labels are gorgeous with only a couple light spindle marks noticed. There is actually a printing error on the Side 1 label in which the “G” in “REGISTRADAS” is missing; there’s just a blank! The matrix numbers end with 4S/4S. Just my personal opinion, but I feel that the Rockaway labels were the most attractive RCA Victor label until 1960, when the Hollywood labels became more attractive with vibrant colors. 1963-64 was the apex of beauty for those!

COVER: VG++ (EXC) with no seam splits, tape or writing. There is only evidence of the early stages of cracking along the spine; it has not “split” like the majority of these covers! The Photo Album inside remains fully intact with no tears or creases. A beautiful, fully original cover! The original “RCA Victor” inner sleeve is included. 

GOOD LUCK!

First and foremost, I do NOT practice the use of "file photos" because I do not believe in it. Using file photos can be misleading to unsuspecting buyers to believe that they will receive an item superior to that which they will receive upon purchase. 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.

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 best protection.

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.

2024 marks 46 years of experience for me in this wonderful hobby. I specialize in Elvis Presley because he is "The King".
