Vinyl pressings
by Everly Brothers · 1960
Lucille was first pressed on vinyl in 1960. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.
25 pressings came out in 1960, the album's first year, in 14 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.

32 vinyl pressings of Lucille are listed here, from 14 countries, released between 1960 and 1980.
The earliest pressings are from 1960, in US, UK, Japan, Australia and more. One of them is Warner Bros. Records 5163, released August 1960.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 5163, WB.19, 45-WB.19, WB-9) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, CH⃫_50575_1A I Λ2 and C_11505_1B I Λ1. 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.
