When was Petula first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1968, in France, US, UK, Australia and more. One of them is Disques Vogue CLD 723.
How do I tell if my copy of Petula is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use CLD 723, WS 1743, NSPL 18235, W 1743) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, CMS. 2304 30 and CMS. 2305 30. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Petula on vinyl worth?
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.
