19 vinyl pressings of All Dressed Up & No Place To Go are listed here, from 13 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1982, in US, Australia, Argentina, Canada and more. One of them is Warner Bros. Records BSK 3678, released July 1982.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BSK 3678, SLIN 3166, XBS 3678, WB K 57 006) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, BSK-1-3678 WW1 · ─◁ and BSK-2-3678 WW1 · ─◁. 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.
