11 vinyl pressings of A Love Until The End Of Time are listed here, from 6 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1985, in Canada, US, Australia, Europe and more. One of them is CBS 38-05425.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 38-05425, 38 05425, MAS 2117, BA 3340) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ZSS-174457 1A2HZ and ZSS-174458 1A2HZ. 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.
