Vinyl pressings
by Elmer Bernstein · 1965
The Hallelujah Trail was first pressed on vinyl in 1965. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.
8 pressings came out in 1965, 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.
o UAS 5127 A 1A P ––A-Side Runout, etched; "o" and "P" (upside down) are stamped
o UAS 5127 B 1B P ––B-Side Runout, etched; "o" and "P" (upside down) are stamped

11 vinyl pressings of The Hallelujah Trail are listed here, from 6 countries, released between 1965 and 1982.
The earliest pressings are from 1965, in US, UK, Canada, Japan and more. One of them is United Artists Records UAS 5127.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use UAS 5127, UAL 4127, ULP 1106, SULP 1106) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. 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.
