12 vinyl pressings of All I Want Is You are listed here, from 6 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1967, in US, UK, Germany, Italy and more. One of them is Charay Records 67.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 67, C-67, POF 024, 19554 AT) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, LH-3119 / Mastered At Frankford Wayne and LH-3118 / Mastered At Frankford Wayne. 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.
