16 vinyl pressings of Some Other Stuff are listed here, from 4 countries, released between 1965 and 2025.
The earliest pressings are from 1965, in US. One of them is Blue Note BST 84177, released February 1965.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BST 84177, BLP 4177) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, BNST-84177-A- P STEREO VAN GELDER and BNST-84177-B- P STEREO VAN GELDER. 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.
