25 vinyl pressings of Kingdom Of Madness are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1978 and 2021.
The earliest pressings are from 1978, in UK, US, Australia, Turkey. One of them is Jet Records JETLP 210.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use JETLP 210, JZ 35811, JT 6013, AŞLP 81) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, JET LP 210 A2 and JET LP 210 B2. 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.
