20 vinyl pressings of I'm On The Outside are listed here, from 7 countries, released between 1964 and 1971.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in US, UK, Japan, Canada and more. One of them is DCP International DCP 1104.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DCP 1104, UP-1065, UP 1065, LL-689-UA) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, Bell Sound R5KM 7057-1C R and Bell Sound R5KM 7058-2A R. 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.
