Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Hello Love are there?

When was Hello Love first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1959, in US. One of them is Verve Records MG V-4034.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MG V-4034, MG VS-64034) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MGV 4034-A 50846 and MGV 4034-B 50847. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Hello Love 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.
