10 vinyl pressings of Look Away are listed here, from 7 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in US, Australia, Canada, France and more. One of them is United Artists Records UA 773, released September 1964.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use UA 773, UA-1063, 35010, LL-705-UA) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ZTSP 94991 and ZTSP 94992. 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.
