Description
This is my sixth auction of vintage Elvis Presley albums. This lot includes 20 titles and 22 albums. Three titles are still factory sealed. But please note that the original factory plastics for 11 more titles are also included. Of course for the open albums with plastic, the plastic has been cut open on the side to get to the records. You know what I mean. Also note that all the original sleeves are present for 15 of the 17 opened titles (as well as whatever sleeves are inside the sealed titles). There are two double albums - Elvis in Hollywood and Double Dynamite. All of the albums in my Elvis Presley lots were purchased before 1980 (unless it's a collection item made later than 1980). And please note that these items remained in my family and in the same house all these years. Yes, some were purchased back in the 1950's and 1960's as well. Please refer to the album numbers to be able to look up release dates. Here is a list of the items included:

Please zoom in on all the pictures for details of both sides of the albums. I propped the factory sealed items up so you can see them better. I plan to ship via USPS Media Mail using a 14x14x6 inch box. Shipping via media mail often takes longer to deliver than Priority Mail. So please be patient. When I receive eBay notification of the auction winner's payment, I will ship either the same day or the next day - if the Post Office is still open.
The 20 titles in this auction were collected by my mom who graduated high school in 1957. She was an Elvis fan from the beginning. Almost all of the albums my mom purchased were bought before Elvis Presley died in 1977. In fact, Elvis died on my mom's birthday August 16th. Yep, my mom was a big fan and he died on her actual birthday. I was 9 years old at the time and remember it clearly. After his death my mom went on a little collection shopping spree to make sure she owned every one of his albums. She already had virtually all of them. But off we went to a bunch of stores to make sure we had the complete collection. She bought a book that was a discography which listed all of Elvis records - I think it was entitled All American Elvis. Indeed she successfully purchased at least one version of every album Elvis released in the United States of America. I recall that there were two of his albums that we had a hard time finding. They were Elvis: Recorded Live On Stage In Memphis (with Graceland on the cover) and the album entitled Elvis (from 1973) which contains the song named Fool. But we eventually found these two hard to find albums. Not sure if those albums are hard to find anymore. But back in 1977 and in Pennsylvania they were hard for us to find going store to store in person via our old school collecting technique. : - )
My mom also collected over 600 Elvis items including probably all or most of his cassettes, 8-tracks, VHS movies (more than 1 copy) and books, magazines, fan club prints, posters, etc. Oh and none of these items including the albums in the auction have never left our family's house. I moved back into the house after most of my family died including my mom, dad, and wife - God rest their beautiful souls. Here's a brief summary of the collection that I will likely auction off in groups over the weeks ahead. Please feel free to ask questions about what I have in the collection. I would certainly try to prioritize whatever interests you.
- 145+ vinyl albums, 37 of these are still in the factory sealed plastic. The collection includes at least one copy of every album he released in the USA. - 90+ vinyl singles in two carrying cases (70 unique singles with 20 duplicates). - 135 8-tracks in four carrying cases. - 84 cassettes in two carrying cases. - 105 VHS videos, 30 of them are still unopened sealed VHS videos. There is at least one copy of each of his 33 movies. - Large number of other items including books, posters, pictures, puzzles, magazines, fan club memorabilia, and trading cards, etc.
I am not a business; I'm just a private owner whose family has been in possession of these items since they came out (or thereabouts). I'm simply trying to make people happy before I go to judgment. When all of the items of interest are auctioned off, my online garage sale will end. Oh and just for your information - I never use a reserve price in my auctions. Please remember that these items are sold as are, no returns. Thank you.
