Vinyl pressings
by Dizzy Gillespie · 1963
Something Old, Something New was first pressed on vinyl in 1963. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.
9 pressings came out in 1963, the album's first year, in 5 countries. Compare the label and catalog number on your copy, then the codes etched or stamped in the runout groove (the dead wax around the label): they are the surest sign of an early pressing.

19 vinyl pressings of Something Old, Something New are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1963 and 1987.
The earliest pressings are from 1963, in US, UK, Canada, France and more. One of them is Philips PHM 200-091.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PHM 200-091, PHS 600-091, SBL.7570, 652 032 BL) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PHM200-91A M1 and PHM200-91B M1. 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.
