this release is essential (if you have nothing else in your life...)

As an avid collector of vintage Elvis memorabilia and I'm sure to others like me, this is an essential purchase. Not particularly as a price guide, more as a guide to what is out there. The strange thing is that I do have a life outside of the Elvis world. I find it odd that somebody who presumably would claim to be an Elvis fan, although has shown little evidence of it through his postings, would make such a comment.

Totally agree with the comments about this contributor. He is either a very sad individual with a giant chip on his shoulder (definitely not an Elvis fan) or he is a wind-up idiot of the first degree!

Some people on here, without fail, almost always, post such negitive commets, and its a shame. This new book is a great read for fans who have collected Elvis goodies over the years.

I collect all pre-1977 Elvis items. Dont care much about the stuff after he passed as most were junk to cash in on his death. I have several books on Elvis collecting including Sean's first one which is very good. This ad I agree, could have been much better especially for those who have his first book , so we could compare. Also, what has changed much? The items are still the same, no? Did he add new ones? The prices? Its what a person is willing to pay and most times thats not the price in the guide. So for me, this is not essential until I see some 'real' shots of it.

SteveV I'll tell you what's changed the guy who wrote this needs an influx of cash. Price guides are worthless as they are never really accurate & become outdated.

Pre-Sun records? As far as I am aware the only thing which could be classified as "Pre-Sun" would be the My Happiness acetate from 1953. And since that was recorded at Sun then even that doesn't actually count. Apart from that this looks like quite an interesting book for anyone who is a long term collector of Elvis stuff.
