This RCA Victor advertisement was found inside the jacket, by the owner not RCA, of LPM-1707 Elvis' Golden Records without the RE. The cover is the transitional cover that already replaced the “thirty-one grueling” text with “several rehearsal” text. The card layout is basically the same design used for Wear My Ring Around Your Neck / Doncha' Think It's Time.1 A picture with Elvis confirms the two paired together.23
