The earliest pressings are from 1978, in Netherlands, Brazil, France, Germany and more. One of them is Bubble 26122 XOT.

How do I tell if my copy of Shpritsz is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 26122 XOT, 26122, 202444, 913 222) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 26122-A and 26122-B.

How much is Shpritsz on vinyl worth?
