28 vinyl pressings of Spanish Guitar Of Five Centuries, Vol. 2 are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1968 and 1980.
The earliest pressings are from 1968, in Germany, France, Japan. One of them is Deutsche Grammophon 139 366 SLPM.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 139 366 SLPM, 139 366, SMG-1466) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 1 ℗ 1968 A 8 WI◇W 00 139 366=2A and 1 ℗ 1968 A 8 WI◇W 00 139 366=2B. 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.
