Elvis Presley – Old Shep (1957 Australian RCA Gold Standard Picture Sleeve EP)

Original 1957 Australian pressing of Elvis Presley's four-track extended play (EP) "Old Shep", released on the RCA / RCA Records label.

CATALOG NUMBER: 20044

TRACK LISTING:
Side 1: Old Shep / Any Place Is Paradise
Side 2: Paralyzed / Ready Teddy

MEDIA CONDITION: Good Plus (G+)
The vinyl disc retains a clear surface gloss but shows visible cosmetic hairlines and superficial paper scuffs when examined under a direct light source. It has been play-tested from start to finish and plays through completely without any skips, sticking, or jumps. Expect standard vintage analog background surface crackle, which is typical for a heavily played 1950s rock and roll pressing. The center labels remain clean and free of ink markings, stickers, or writing.

SLEEVE CONDITION: Poor (P) / Fair (F)
The original picture sleeve is heavily damaged. It displays advanced wear from storage and handling over the decades, including deep creasing, edge tears, missing paper pieces, and extensive old sticky tape residue and historic tape repairs. The reverse side features a vintage music store stamp. The sleeve remains intact enough to house the record but is graded strictly as a filler copy.

SHIPPING AND PACKAGING
The record will be packaged securely inside a dedicated cardboard 7-inch vinyl mailer. To prevent edge damage and seam splits during transit, the vinyl disc will be removed from the main company sleeve. Includes a brand new plastic inner sleeve to protect the vinyl. Includes a brand new plastic outer sleeve to protect the paper sleeve. Tracked shipping is provided.
