Vinyl pressings
by Peter, Paul & Mary · 1967

71 vinyl pressings of Album 1700 are listed here, from 17 countries, released between 1967 and 2022.
The earliest pressings are from 1967, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Warner Bros. Records W 1700.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use W 1700, WS 1700, WS 1700 W1700 WS.1700, WS. 1700) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, T 9255 W-1700-A RE1 1-D 1 8 and T 9255 W-1700-B RE1 1-C 1 C 5. 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.
