The Definitive Sun Records Time Capsule
This is not just a record; it is a pristine piece of music industry history. Presented here is the legendary Sun 100 and Sun 101—the bedrock of Johnny Cash’s career—in a rare, original distributor shrink-wrapped bundle.
Identified by the elusive P2S 5390 hype sticker, this specific configuration was a limited-run marketing tactic from the early 1970s. It joined two individual, first-press Sun International LPs into a single high-value unit for premium retail outlets. Finding these albums individually is common; finding them unopened and still fused together by the original 50-year-old factory plastic is nearly impossible.
For the serious Johnny Cash investor, this is the ultimate "display piece." Most of these bundles were ripped open decades ago, making this sealed survivor a true outlier. Whether you are a Sun Records scholar or a high-end vinyl investor, this P2S 5390 twin-pack is a cornerstone acquisition that bridges the gap between mid-century Americana and 1970s retail history.
Investment Grade Highlights
-
True Factory Seal: Both Volume 1 and Volume 2 are housed in their original individual jackets, preserved in the same state they left the Nashville warehouse in 1970.
-
The "P2S 5390" Premium Marker: The presence of the original distributor sticker is the "holy grail" for Sun Records completionists. It verifies this as a legitimate, historically documented twin-pack rather than a modern re-wrap.
-
The Singleton Era Sun Sound: These pressings represent the iconic Shelby Singleton era of Sun International, featuring the definitive high-fidelity masters of "I Walk the Line," "Folsom Prison Blues," and "Get Rhythm."
-
Museum Quality Condition: Because the two jackets have been pressed against each other for decades inside the shrink, the inner cover art has been protected from light, dust, and handling, preserving the vibrant "Sun Yellow" and classic outlaw imagery.
