19 vinyl pressings of Brasilia Carnaval are listed here, from 11 countries, released between 1975 and 1985.
The earliest pressings are from 1975, in France, Belgium, Canada, Israel and more. One of them is Aquarius 530 001.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 530 001, 530001, LPZ 504 y, LPZ 504-Y) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 530 001 A and 530 001 B. 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.
