13 vinyl pressings of Blind are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1991 and 2022.
The earliest pressings are from 1991, in Europe. One of them is Roadracer Records RO 9236 1.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RO 9236 1) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 08 30794 20 1A1 92̶236-1 A and 08 30794 20 1B1 9236-1 A. 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.
