15 vinyl pressings of Everybody's Welcome At Mrs. Mills' Party are listed here, from 4 countries, released between 1963 and 1984.
The earliest pressings are from 1963, in UK, Australia, New Zealand. One of them is Parlophone PCS 3049.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PCS 3049, PMC 1212, PCSO 3049, PMCO 1212) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, YEX 100-1 and YEX 101-1. 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.
