Stickers:
On shrink-wrap, may include, Saturn sticker on back with song
titles (VPSX-6089-1), Quadradisc sticker on front cover (one of
two sizes 2 1/16" x 2 7/8" or 2 1/4" x 2 7/8") (VPSX-6089-2),
and/or Steamroller Blues (VPSX-6089-3) sticker. The Chicken of
the Sea Sneak Preview sticker was only available for select Chicken
of the Sea employees. The red sticker reads DELUXE (2) TWO RECORD
SET.
The
Quadradisc sticker variation of size was only recently discovered
and brought to my attention by Robert Alaniz of Soundz Good
Records. This sticker may be found in one of two sizes, 2 1/16"
x 2 7/8" or 2 1/4" x 2 7/8". Though both exist, it seems that
the smaller of the two stickers is significantly less common.

Disc:
(1974) Orange label. Quadradisc vinyl. Blue vinyl.
Recently
discovered from the RCA pressing plant in Indianapolis, Indiana.
This blue vinyl, experiment pressing features Side A / Side
B of the two record set. According to the auction description,
the blue vinyl experimental pressing was to sample each of two
weights of vinyl. Rigid (will not bend) and Dynaflex (flexible).
An extremely small number of this first disc (4748/4749) was
discovered, pressed in both rigid & Dynaflex vinyl. A couple
of examples of Side C / Side D are known to exist in Dynaflex
only. The record was not issued with a cover, however a generic
RCA Red Seal poly-lined inner sleeve. This example is on the
cover Presleyana VII.
This
sold for $1,995.00 on August 1, 2012 on eBay. Another copy sold
on eBay for $1,201.12 on April 8, 2014.

| Rarer
still, though, is the offered blue vinyl LP for the second LP of
Aloha from Hawaii. Although it represents sides 3 and 4 of the record,
and lists the appropriate songs, the label is marked “Side A” and
“Side B.” The matrix numbers are stamped as CPRT-4750 and CPRT-4751,
and the album is stamped on the more flexible Dynaflex vinyl. While
there may be other copies in existence, this second disc seems to
be much harder to come by. No album cover was issued for these discs,
further indicating their experimental or test pressing status, but
the offered LP does come with its original RCA Red Seal poly-lined
inner sleeve. This radiant blue disc offers an incredible opportunity
to acquire one of the most rare Elvis records. It is accompanied
by a letter of authenticity from Graceland Authenticated. |
