August 5, 2022 Records of the Day

In 1963 Elvis starred in the movie “It Happened at the World’s Fair.” It featured the king’s shortest hit, “One Broken Heart for Sale.” At 1:45 the single with picture sleeve can sell for $50.00. Set in Seattle at the real world’s fair, Elvis plays the part of a crop-duster. The original soundtrack, released in 1963, is worth up to $150.00 on an RCA black label. In 1968 it was re issued with an RCA orange label and a rare example of the re issue being worth more than the original. That re issue is worth up to $1,000.00 today. Many times it’s the little things that make the big difference.
