Questions
How many vinyl pressings of Loveline are there?

When was Loveline first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1979, in UK, US, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Elektra K 52135.
How do I tell if my copy of Loveline is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use K 52135, 6E-181, Q6E-181, ELK 52 135) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, K 52135 A1E and K 52135 B1E. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Loveline 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.
