Bob Jones: 50,000,000 Elvis Fans Can't Be Wrong: Elvis' Gold Records-Volume 2,

limited edition lithograph of the 1959 album cover, signed in pencil by artist/photographer Bob Jones, and numbered 58/200, framed and with background details, framed, image 17 x 17 inches (43 x 43cm)

Footnotes

Provenance: Ex-lot 102, Rock 'n' Roll And Film Memorabilia, Sotheby's London, 18/19th September 1996.

Bob Jones, Art Director for RCA, designed over seventy covers for Elvis Presley LPs and EPs. According to Jones, Elvis himself was disinterested in how the covers to his records looked and, up to that point, Colonel Parker, who handled such matters, had stuck to a tried and tested look. This cover was a fairly radical departure from that formula.
