14 vinyl pressings of Put Your Hands Together are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1989 and 1990.
The earliest pressings are from 1989, in UK, US, Australasia, Canada and more. One of them is FFRR FX 124.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use FX 124, F 124, FXDJ 124, 869 145-1) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, FX 124 A-1U-1-1 KAL and FX 124 B-1U-1-1. 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.
