There are no other bonus photos for either album, just the two in the small 3×5 format. This is how RCA began their marketing with Elvis bonus photos. This photo was issued by Moss Photo Service. The only other bonus photo I know to be (much) more valuable than this one is the totally ellusive 3.5×5.5″ used to promote LPM-1254.

This rare card was found in a stack of 1950s romance comics I purchased. It is the 2nd bonus photo produced by RCA and sent to certain record stores/distributors and then possibly given in small amounts out to the public if you purchased the initial release of his 2nd album. It shows Elvis’s then current RCA single releases listed on the back. These are extremely hard to find and it is the 2nd earliest, and 2nd hardest to find, Elvis bonus photo. The card has very light corner wear and does have a small piece of old tape at the bottom middle over Elvis’s shoe. I don’t notice it at first but you can see its outline in the photo. The back has browned some due to its age. There are no holes or tears. Please review the pics and reach out with any questions.
