Today's Auctions:  When I first started collecting Elvis records many decades ago this LP was commonly listed as one of the top 20 rarest records in the world.  Since that time it was determined that there were more copies than originally thought and it was taken from that list, however, it is still a tough find for the Elvis collector.  For some unknown reason on this one pressing, the RCA pressing plant made an error and somehow substituted the normal "Old Shep" track with an alternate take from the studio of the same name, where Elvis adds a few words to the lyrics from the normally released track.  That has caused this to be a serious collectors item, always highly valued when found.  This cover is in VG+ shape, does have some small white marks on front cover, other than than has held its integrity nicely.  The spine and edges are all in fine condition as is the back, which features an all white background with text, no pictures or ads.  The back cover has very light wear in a few spots, hard to track down.  The record is a beauty, somewhere between VG+ and M-, great gloss and sheen, just the very lightest bit of wear in a few isolated spots.  This is a keeper for any serious Elvis collection!

Rating Guide:

Mint (M): Perfect in every way, looks to have never been played, should have that look just as it did when you pulled the record from the new cover at the time of original purchase.

Mint Minus (M-): A nearly perfect record and cover. This item should show no readily visible signs of wear, covers and sleeves should have no more than nearly invisible rings or other signs of slight wear and vinyl should still be completely glossy and shiney, just the very lightest hint of wear if it is tilted to very bright light.

Very Good Plus (VG+): This record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled carefully by the previous owner. Record surfaces will show some light signs of paper scuffing or light scratches, that don't affect the listening experience. Slight warps that do not affect sound are OK. This disc should still contain much of its original luster and sheen. The covers and picture sleeves should also be in very nice shape, they may have light ring wear or other signs of wear, may have a small cut out hole, indention or stamping present. Also there can be non obvious writing on the paper goods.

Very Good (VG): Many of the defects found in the VG+ record and cover will be present but more pronounced in the VG item. Surface noise will be evident, although the record should play through without skipping or repeating. Groove wear will now be noticable, scuffing and light scratching will be appearent, a scratch now can be felt with a fingernail. Labels will be marred with tape or tape residue, stickers or descret writing. The same will be true for the LP cover or picture sleeve.

Good (G): Good does not mean bad! A record in good condition should be placed on a turntable and it should play through, all though the surface noise will be evident. A cover or picture sleeve will have seam splitting, especially on the bottom seam or spine. Also there will be noticable ring wear caused by the presence of the record. The defects will start to overwhere this item.

Fair (F) or Poor (P): This record will be cracked, badly warped, and will not play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeeve or LP cover will show lots and lots of wear, the seams will be split on all three sides barely able to hold the record. This item will appear near valueless, unless of course it is a rarity that may not be seen again.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!
