15 vinyl pressings of Treat Me Like A Woman are listed here, from 11 countries, released between 1976 and 1978.
The earliest pressings are from 1976, in US, UK, Germany, Australia and more. One of them is Big Tree Records BT-16064.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BT-16064, K 10720, ATL 10 720 (N), CHS 608) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ST-BT-31957 SP and ST-BT-31958 SP. 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.
