Description

VINYL TITLE — ARTIST (YEAR) • CATALOG Artist: Elvis Presley Album: Elvis' Christmas Album Year: 1957 Catalog Number: LOC-1035 Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Mono Edition: US First Pressing (Hollywood Plant) 💿 DESCRIPTION Original 1957 US mono first edition. This release features the high-quality black RCA Victor labels with silver print and the Nipper logo at the top. The record is housed in the original heavy-duty gatefold cover with a red textured spine. This version includes the famous 12-page color photo booklet securely attached to the inside of the gatefold. 💎 CONDITION vinyl: very good plus (vg+) cover: very good plus (vg+) 🧾 NOTES FOR COLLECTORS This is the genuine first pressing of the most successful Christmas album of all time. Collectors look specifically for the LOC-1035 catalog number and the original 1957 H2PP matrix prefix. Unlike later, cheaper reissues, this original version came with a luxurious book-style cover. A key identifier for this specific copy is the stamped H in the dead wax, confirming it was manufactured at the RCA Records Pressing Plant in Hollywood. This album was somewhat controversial upon release due to Elvis’s rock and roll treatment of holiday standards, particularly White Christmas, which songwriter Irving Berlin reportedly tried to have banned from radio play. 🔍 MATRIX / LABEL DETAILS Label: Black labels, silver text, "Long 33 1/3 Play" at bottom.

  1. Absolute flawless international shipping, was fun to see all the stops the package made during delivery, van halen box set was packed professionally and shipped priority without any import tax at all. Item was exactly as described and the only one available anywhere, item was unopened sealed and considered extremely rare from 1984. This was the best experience I've ever had on ebay, all questions were answered directly and promptly. Definitely saving this seller for future purchases. Thank you

  2. The records were as described, honest seller. I wish I had information from seller that the tracking wasn’t to my address, that it was going to a different address, and then being forwarded. Following the tracking had me concerned. So I recommend buyers communicate with the seller to understand that the tracking may not (at least in my case) indicate that it might go to a different address. Once it was forwarded I did receive tracking to my home. Still, great records, safe packaging.
