Vinyl pressings
by Elton John · 1971
17-11-70 was first pressed on vinyl in 1971. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.

72 vinyl pressings of 17-11-70 are listed here, from 26 countries, released between 1971 and 2017.
The earliest pressings are from 1971, in UK, US, Canada, Argentina and more. One of them is DJM Records DJLPS 414.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DJLPS 414, 93105, LF-199, SDJL-934201) 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.
