Questions

How many vinyl pressings of More are there?

14 vinyl pressings of More are listed here, from 4 countries.

When was More first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1963, in UK, US, South Africa. One of them is His Master's Voice POP 1150.

How do I tell if my copy of More is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use POP 1150, UA 601, 45-SAB 2025) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 7XEA 20284 and 7XEA 20297. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is More on vinyl worth?

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.
