27 vinyl pressings of Dizzy Gillespie + The Double Six Of Paris are listed here, from 11 countries, released between 1963 and 2013.
The earliest pressings are from 1963, in Netherlands, UK, US, Canada and more. One of them is Philips 852 038 BY.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 852 038 BY, 652038 BL, BL 7596, SBL 7596) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 6 AA 852 038 1Y 1 670 1 and 6 AA 852 038 2Y 1 670 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.
