The earliest pressings are from 1990, in Italy, UK, France, Germany and more. One of them is Paradise Project Records PPR 001.
How do I tell if my copy of Risky is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PPR 001, rumat 14, ruma 14, RUMAT 14) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MIX 004-A F.P.I. SOUND and MIX 004-AA RISKY-A-TUTTO. 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.
