Description


Elvis Presley on RCA 47-7777 from 1960. The record is in VG++/M- condition and the labels are as seen. There is spot of sticker residue on one label. This is a rare US military issue pressed for the troops in Germany at the time (see below). This copy is the "S6" label variation. The dead wax has "Manufactured in Germany" machined stamped on both sides and the matrix #'s are" 45-L2WW-0100-XU and 45-L2WW-0085-X. Hard to find in this condition!
 "The combination It's Now Or Never - A Mess Of Blues was never released as a German pressing. This was released in America. In Germany it was the single 47-9314 O Sole Mio (It's Now Or Never) - Make Me Know It.  This single (47-7777) was pressed for the US soldiers who were stationed in Germany. This one has the German S5 label. This single also exists with the S6 and S7 label".   S6 label

All records are visually and play graded. U.S. buyers to add $3.50 shipping ($9.00 to Canada & $11.00 to Europe). I will combine shipping on multiple wins. Pay Pal and other payment options will be acceptable.                                             PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE TO BE SENT.
ATTENTION ALL INTERNATIONAL BIDDERSPLEASE READ: If the winning bid is over $40.00 your item will be sent Registered Mail ($22.50 total). 
NOTE: Items sent to Germany, France & Spain will be shipped Registered Mail ($22.50) regardless of the final bid amount.
I'm sorry about the higher international Postal rates but the US Post Office has almost doubled the rates in some cases. I'm am not making a profit on these rates. As a matter of fact these new rates are still a bit under what the PO is charging me. 
This has to be done for tracking purposes and is both for the buyer's and seller's protection. ** NO EXCEPTIONS **. Too many "Item Not Received" filings and a lot of sellers are getting hit with charge backs. I regret that I have to resort to this type of international shipping policy but as a seller I have no choice. I must protect my product from the small % of disreputable buyers and corrupt customs and postal services etc.

                    No negative Feedback or private FB Bidders. Those bids will be cancelled. 

Thanks.
