Vinyl pressings
by Jules And The Polar Bears · 1978
Got No Breeding was first pressed on vinyl in 1978. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.
13 pressings came out in 1978, the album's first year, in 5 countries. Compare the label and catalog number on your copy, then the codes etched or stamped in the runout groove (the dead wax around the label): they are the surest sign of an early pressing.

14 vinyl pressings of Got No Breeding are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1978 and 1981.
The earliest pressings are from 1978, in US, Australia, Canada, Japan and more. One of them is Columbia JC 35601, released October 1978.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use JC 35601, SBP 237285, PC 35601, 25AP-1158) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S1 PAL-35601-1B KENDUN-B SEARCH & D̷E̷S̷T̷R̷O̷Y̷ RESEARCH A and 1S PBL-35601-1A KENDUN-A GOOD IS LOUD A2. 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.
