13 vinyl pressings of Big Bold And Brassy Percussion In Brass are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1960 and 1972.
The earliest pressings are from 1960, in US, Argentina, Canada, France. One of them is Command RS 33-818.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use RS 33-818, RS 818 SD, CSDF 80007, FCLP 75007) 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.
