10 vinyl pressings of This Is One Girl are listed here, from 8 countries, released between 1976 and 2003.
The earliest pressings are from 1976, in UK, US, Australia, France and more. One of them is Pye Records NSPL 18483.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use NSPL 18483, PYE 12128, SPLP-1470, PY. 28059) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, NSPL 18483 A-1Δ and NSPL 18483 B-1Δ. 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.
