A 1958 45, with a cardboard sleeve, that I got from my mom. Undamaged, it's worth about $5. This one, which has chewed edges from a cat or dog, is worth nothing. Too bad it's not unopened and perfect. Then I would have something. My mom also had the 45 of him in his gold lame suit, but it seems to be lost.

1958 - that's pretty old. I'd keep it if I were you.
I'm keeping it, just for fun. I read an article a few years about places that buy old records. They bought them by the pound. Apparently they melted them down. Very few old records are worth anything, and they have to be unopened and in perfect condition. I was surprised to learn this record, in perfect condition but opened, is worth $5.
