19 vinyl pressings of I'll Try Anything are listed here, from 15 countries, released between 1967 and 1969.
The earliest pressings are from 1967, in UK, US, Australia, Belgium and more. One of them is Philips BF 1553, released February 1967.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BF 1553, 40439, BF-306, 326796 BF) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 326796 1F∇ 1420 and 326796 2F∇ 1420. 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.
