This unbelievably rare and impossible to find promotional-only album can only be compared in value to the Robert W. Sarnoff RCA Chairman retirement LP that was given out to RCA executives at Mr. Sarnoff's retirement dinner. This album was produced by radio's number one broadcast network, The Mutual Broadcasting System, for their December 28 & 29 1959 awards dinner and given out to their executives and some of the Nation's top disc jockeys that were invited to the dinner. The All American Mutual Broadcasting Award is displayed on the front cover graphics. This presentation was narrated by John Scott who at the time hosted the popular "The World Today" radio show. Elvis is included, of course, and sings Hound Dog during the show's segment on Elvis and rock 'n roll The record is stone mint and features mint perfect blue and silver labels. Both the record and cover are clearly marked 'Not For Sale". The cover features perfect graphics and color on the front and the back cover is just as nice with only light aging in the white background. The spines, seams, etc. are tight and nice. There is some edgewear on the top and bottom seams but all in all in the cover is a very presentable VG++. Quite frankly, as only one other example of this album has ever been verified to be in an Elvis collector's hands, this is probably not only the nicest example but also the only opportunity you will ever have to add this rarest of the rare Elvis record to your collection. |
