61 vinyl pressings of Elvis Sings Hits From His Movies, Volume 1 are listed here, from 13 countries, released between 1972 and 1980.
The earliest pressings are from 1972, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is RCA Camden CAS-2567, released June 1972.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CAS-2567, CDS 1110 (CAS 2567) BCRS 5270, CDS 1110, CDS III0) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, BCRS 5270 2S Ⅰ B1 and BCRS 5271 2S A1 Ⅰ. 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.
