Description
Elvis Presley's Original
1 9 5 5 S U N R E C O R D
"The Sun Never Sets On A Legend"
Sun's Sam Phillips sent out these early Elvis records to radio station DJ's as a promotional item. Before the standard of white label promos came about, Sam used his Red Rubber Stamp marking them as S A M P L E.
This ultra rare original Elvis Presley Sun 217 45 rpm record has the famous "push marks" identification produced in manufacturing.
This record is in beautiful Near Mint condition!
The promo designation S A M P L E is stamped on the Sun label, as seen in the pictures.
This ultra rare Elvis Presley Sun S A M P L E record includes the songs:
Sun 217 "Baby Let's Play House" / "I'm Left, You're Right, She's Gone"
We have been meticulous in taking excellent pictures, in order to give the buyer the highest level of confidence for their buying decision. The push marks on the Suns are not easily depicted in these digital Kodak photos.
I pulled them from our storage vault to examine and give you the locations of these push marks, in triangular shape if connecting the dots, as follows:
On 217 (NM to Mint) on Let's in title ..touching (Gunter); on flipside touching You're and (Kesler- ... The other push marks are spaced accordingly to the triangular spacing if connecting the three dots.
As far as the 45 Sun sleeves, up close in person, you can see the aging. By the way, I'm including the SUN sleeves as a bonus. Early Suns had brown paper sleeves. I collected most everything on Sun and over time, assembled these nice Sun sleeves to showcase the records in my collection.
This record have been in my 40 plus year collection for many years now, but at this time in my life, I am no longer collecting and selling my entire collection. Best wishes and congratulations to the winning bidder!
