11 vinyl pressings of Pete Fountain's New Orleans At Midnight are listed here, from 6 countries, released between 1963 and 1964.
The earliest pressings are from 1963, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Coral CRL 757429.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CRL 757429, CRL 57429, SVL 9223, CL-31,347) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MG8742T3 2 and MG8743T2 2. 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.
