26 vinyl pressings of Il Cielo In Una Stanza / La Notte are listed here, from 3 countries, released between 1960 and 1967.
The earliest pressings are from 1960, in Italy, Japan, Switzerland. One of them is Italdisc MH 61.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MH 61, MH-61, MH - 61, RANK-1086) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MH-61-A and MH-61-B. 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.
