13 vinyl pressings of Le Quattro Stagioni Opus 8 Nos.1-4 are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1970 and 1990.
The earliest pressings are from 1970, in Poland. One of them is Polskie Nagrania Muza SX 0587.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SX 0587) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S3X 587 A-6 K and S3X 587 B-7 K. 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.
