COLLECTABLE SUN RECORDS
MANY YEARS AGO, I BEGAN COLLECTING SUN RECORDS, EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING RELATED TO SUN; I AM SELLING MY COMPLETE COLLECTION; 78’S, 45, EP’S, LP’S, ODDITIES, FRENCH SUN RELEASES, SHEET MUSIC, AND PICTURES. BASED ON THE ‘JAM’ SESSION RECORDED DECEMBER 4, 1956, ELVIS, PERKINS, CASH, AND LEWIS, “THE MILLION DOLLAR QUARTET”, I GOT THE IDEA TO TAKE THE FIRST 5 RECORDS OF THESE CLASSIC FIVE ARTISTS, ( INCLUDING ROY ORBISON), AND FRAME THE 78 RPMS; note the included picture; 24 TOTAL. I CALL IT THE “CLASS OF ’55 WALL”. ORBISON #265 WAS RE-RELEASED AS #353 SO I DIDN’T FRAME THAT ONE LAST RECORD. KEEP IN MIND, AS I COLLECTED, I WAS CONSTANTLY UPGRADING. ALL THESE RECORDS ARE PRISTINE!! I CAN’T GUARANTEE THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN PLAYED, BUT THE LABELS ARE PERFECT, BRIGHT COLOR, NO MARKS OR WRITINGS, EXCEPT A FEW THAT ARE AUTOGRAPHED. THE WAX IS PERFECT, NO JUKEBOX SWIRLS OR SCRATCHES; VERY SHINY AND DEEP GROOVES!! The marks in the close up are reflections from the camera. ALL ARE ALUMINUM, AND ARE PROFESSIONALLY FRAMED. I HAVE MANY OTHER SUN RECORDS, BUT THE RECORDS I FRAMED ARE THE BEST.
THIS ONE IS THE FIRST OF FIVE ELVIS' #223, “MYSTERY TRAIN” flip side “I FORGOT TO REMEMBER TO FORGET”. RECORDED JULY , 1955; ELVIS, SCOTTY MOORE, BILL BLACK, JOHNNY BERNERO on drums, and BUDDY CUNNINGHAM ON BONGOS THIS IS ELVIS’ LAST SUN RECORDING. THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL RECORD. PERFECT!!! One little spot of paper missing, shown in the pic. PACKAGING WILL BE VERY SECURE. INSURANCE IS STRONGLY SUGGESTED AND VALUED PREDICATED ON THE SALE VALUE.
