Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MCA-2137, MCF 2700, 8184 (maps 7884), MAPS 7884) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MCA 704 W1 B.D.I. + D.T. ⧈-G-⧈ BRIAN-'PLEASE CALL HOME - LINDA AND I ARE SICK WITH WORRY"-AL! and MCA 705 W3 B.D.I. + D.T. ⧈-G-⧈ BRIAN!

How much is Nuthin' Fancy on vinyl worth?
