Elvis Presley - "Elvis Presley" RCA Records. Super Hard to find Elvis Rarity! The best information that I have says this pressing of The King's first album was one that was pressed in Germany for U.S. Servicemen stationed Overseas at the time! The fact that I got it along with a bunch of other Armed Forces Radio items lends some credence to this. 

The cover appears to be a standard issue U.S. First Pressing - it is labeled "Printed In U.S.A.". 
The label is Gloss Black with Silver Print in the German RCA Style rather than the typical U.S. label of the time but.... it is labeled "Made In U.S.A." in the print along the bottom perimeter! However, in the runoff area of the vinyl, there is a stamp stating  "Manufactured In Germany".  it feels like a German pressing too, really thick.. My guess is that the Vinyl and Label are actually made in Germany despite the notice on the cover label.  there are not a lot of these  around any more. Songs are:
  • 1. Blue Suede Shoes
  • 2. I'm Counting On You
  • 3. I Got A Woman
  • 4. One-Sided Love Affair
  • 5. I Love You Because
  • 6. Just Because
  • 7. Tutti Frutti
  • 8. Tryin' To Get To You
  • 9. I'm Gonna Sit Right Down And Cry
  • 10. I'll Never Let You Go
  • 11. Blue Moon
  • 12. Money Honey

/////// I have sold many rare records, worldwide, for over 20 years. My grading is considered very accurate, my feedbacks will give you some idea. ALL records are original Pressings unless otherwise stated. I grade records visually, usually. Cover graded first then vinyl, .

////////////RECORD GRADING ::: FS=Factory Sealed. /// New= New (or Mint) perfect in every way, record appears unplayed. /// New- = New minus (or Mint minus), record played maybe 1 to 9 times , perhaps a few spindle lines on label, and maybe a sleeve line or two. Covers close to M, has maybe a small corner bend, maybe the very slightest of ring line caused by the record./// VG+ = Very Good Plus, record played a little more than an m- but well cared for. Vinyl has the vast majority of its original luster, may have sleeve lines, maybe a few very lite scuffs; maybe one or two small, very light surface scratches. But not all at the same time. Cover MAY have very minor ringwear, maybe a few other flaws, a minor corner bend or two, maybe a small partial seam split; /// VG = record has the flaws of a VG+, only more of them; may also have some small scratches that are felt with a fingernail. Vinyl is very playable and will play through, good luster. Probably some noise between tracks, maybe in quiet passages. Still, a reasonably well cared for record. /// VG- = proportionally lower than a VG.//// G-It is rare that I will even list a record in this condition; but it will be proportionally lower than a VG-. .//////// ABBREVIATIONS : *=stereo, OIS= original inner sleeve, cc= cut corner, co=cut out, ss=seam split. soc= sticker on cover; toc = tape on cove, woc= writing on cover, sol = sticker on label , wol = writing on label.tr= tape repair.~~~~CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS~~~~ ~~~Win more items & save on shipping~~~Please see Payment instructions for shipping rates~~~
