22 vinyl pressings of From The Inside are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1971 and 1979.
The earliest pressings are from 1971, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Epic KE 30753.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use KE 30753, PE 30753, ASF 1633, S EPC 64543) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, T1 PAL 30753-1C o B and T2 PBL 30753-1C o A. 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.
