19 vinyl pressings of The Easy Winners And Other Rag-Time Music Of… are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1975 and 1980.
The earliest pressings are from 1975, in UK, US, Australia, France and more. One of them is His Master's Voice ASD 3075.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ASD 3075, S-37113, OASD. 3075, 2C 065-02599) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 2YEA.5239 and 2YEA.5240. 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.
