16 vinyl pressings of Imagine Me Imagine You are listed here, from 13 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1975, in Netherlands, UK, US, Austria and more. One of them is GTO 2099 121.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 2099 121, GT 21, 7608, P-7608) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, AA 2099 121 1W1 (P) 1975 670 1 06 and AA 2099 121 2W1 (P) 1975 670 1 06. 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.
