The earliest pressings are from 1969, in US, Brazil, Canada, Germany and more. One of them is Tetragrammaton Records T-117, released June 1969.
How do I tell if my copy of Elyse is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use T-117, LPG 624.025, 543.032, 184 238) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, T 117 Re 1 Side 1 LW Bestway DT and T 117 Re Side 2 LW Bestway DT. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Elyse 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.
