VINYL TITLE — ARTIST (YEAR) • CATALOG Elvis Presley – “Elvis (Original Soundtrack Recording From His NBC-TV Special)” Label: RCA Victor – LPM-4088 Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, Mono Country: USA Released: 1968-1977 Genre: Rock, Blues, Stage & Screen Style: Rock & Roll, Soundtrack, Television Special 💿 DESCRIPTION This LP documents the historic 1968 NBC-TV “Comeback Special” that reignited Elvis Presley’s career after nearly a decade devoted to Hollywood soundtracks. Combining intimate live performances and re-recorded studio segments — including “Trouble,” “Lawdy Miss Clawdy,” “Jailhouse Rock,” and the legendary “If I Can Dream” — the album captures Elvis at his creative and emotional peak. The mono edition (LPM-4088) was issued in late November 1968 and pressed only through early 1969 , marking one of the very last U.S. mono LPs before RCA permanently shifted to stereo. The bold front design — Elvis in a white suit framed by red-bulb “ELVIS” marquee lights — became one of the most iconic covers in his entire catalog. 💎 CONDITION VINYL: Presumed MINT (unplayed) COVER: Factory-sealed, never opened (shrink has small tear on front side) 🧾 NOTES FOR COLLECTORS Label: Early mono copies — orange RCA Victor labels (one of the first Elvis titles to use this design) Pressing plants: Indianapolis (“I”), Hollywood (“H”), Rockaway (“R”); lacquer codes typically 1S – 3S Front cover: RCA / LPM-4088 printed upper-left Back cover: Red layout with five Elvis performance photos and credit block; “ELVIS TV SPECIAL LPM-4088” top right Producers / Crew: Bob Finkel – Exec Prod | Steve Binder – Dir/Prod | Bones Howe – Music Supervision | William Goldenberg – Arrangements | W. Earl Brown – Lyrics | Gene McAvoy – Art Direction Collector note: While the cover design remained unchanged through 1977, the true mono LPM-4088 is identifiable by its catalog number and label format — later reissues (LSP and AFL1) are stereo only and far more common. Authentic sealed mono copies are among the hardest to find in the entire Elvis catalog. 🔍 MATRIX / LABEL DETAILS Typical first-pressing matrix numbers: Side 1 – UPRM-3942-1S (I / H / R plant mark) Side 2 – UPRM-3943-1S (I / H / R plant mark) Rim text: “TMK(s) ® RCA CORP. — MADE IN U.S.A.” (no later AFL1 reference). 📦 SHIPPING 📮 STANDARD: 5–30 DAYS — FREE SHIPPING ✈️ INTERNATIONAL PRIORITY: 5–15 DAYS — 30$ 🚚 FEDEX EXPRESS: 3–7 DAYS — 65$ WORLD OF AUDIOPHILE (EBAY SELLER) 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK • FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE FOLLOW ON INSTAGRAM: @WORLD_OF_AUDIOPHILE ⭐ LATEST BUYER FEEDBACK “ABSOLUTELY STUNNING VINYL!

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
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.
The Shipping is Excellent! I love that it has to travel. The Packaging is excellent! Couldn't ask for more. The cassette came exactly as described and looked just like in the pictures. The Value is definetly there! I highly reccomend this seller. Hurry before all the good ones leave. I'll be back for more. Thank you for everything!
