MINT AUDIO PLAYBACK! AUTHENTIC 1967 ELVIS PRESLEY "AIR-PLAY SPECIAL" WHITE LABEL PROMO 45
Up for sale is a phenomenal, highly sought-after 1967 DJ-only promotional 7" single issued by RCA Victor for Elvis Presley's landmark Grammy-winning gospel LP, "How Great Thou Art."
This premium collector's package includes the authentic white-label promo record paired with its incredibly fragile, original black-and-white promotional picture sleeve. Finding this combination with pristine audio fidelity and an intact sleeve is exceptionally rare.
CRITICAL IDENTIFIERS: - Catalog Number: SP-45-162 - Side 1 Matrix (Stamped): UNKM-3825 - Side 2 Matrix (Stamped): UNKM-3826 - Labels: Pristine white promo labels reading "NOT FOR SALE" and "FOR DJ's ONLY"
CONDITION & AUDIT ANALYSIS: - Audio Fidelity (NM-): Outstanding. Fully audio-tested from start to finish on a high-fidelity system. Plays remarkably clean, quiet, and powerful. Absolutely NO skips, NO loud pops, and NO surface crackling. An archive-grade play copy that sounds like a fresh pressing. - Vinyl Visual Condition (VG+): Retains brilliant original factory gloss with only a couple of microscopic, superficial paper-sleeve wisps visible under direct halogen light. - Picture Sleeve Condition (VG+): Incredibly well-preserved vintage condition. Features sharp edges and absolutely NO tears or split seams. Shows only a minor crimped corner from long-term storage and light vintage ring wear as pictured. The text on the reverse "For Radio Stations Only" is perfectly clear and crisp. - Label Condition: Crisp, clean white labels with sharp print and zero ink handwriting, radio station stamps, or spindle wear around the center hole.
SHIPPING PROTOCOLS FOR COLLECTORS: To prevent seam splits during transit, the vinyl record will be removed from the original picture sleeve and placed into a separate protection jacket. The entire package will then be tightly secured with heavy cardboard flats and shipped inside a dedicated, crushproof 7-inch record box.
