37 vinyl pressings of Only One Woman are listed here, from 19 countries, released between 1968 and 1983.
The earliest pressings are from 1968, in UK, US, Austria, Canada and more. One of them is Polydor 56272.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 56272, 45-44003, 44003, 59225) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 56272 A▽1 420 11 3 and 56272 B▽1 420 11 3. 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.
