11 vinyl pressings of Human Behaviour are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1993 and 1994.
The earliest pressings are from 1993, in UK, US, France. One of them is One Little Indian 112 TP 12, released June 7, 1993.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 112 TP 12, 0-66299, 112TP12 P, 112TP12 DJ) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MPO 112TP12 AI THE EXCHANGE - S·D / NiLZ and MPO 112TP12 BI THE EXCHANGE - S.D / NiLZ. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
It depends on which pressing you have and on the condition of the record and its sleeve. Early pressings from the album's home country in near mint condition are usually worth the most; common later reissues are worth far less. Scan your copy with VinylLens to see its value for every grade.
