98 vinyl pressings of In The Summertime / Mighty Man are listed here, from 34 countries, released between 1970 and 2023.
The earliest pressings are from 1970, in UK, US, France, Japan and more. One of them is Dawn DNX.2502.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use DNX.2502, 7N 2502, J-125, 45. PV. 15337) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, DNX 2502A1-♢H and DNX 2502B1-♢H. 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.
