12 vinyl pressings of Γιάννης Πουλόπουλος 1 are listed here, from 3 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1967, in Greece. One of them is Lyra XLP 3-3228.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use XLP 3-3228) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, XLP 33228 A 3 and XLP 3338 2 B. 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.
