The earliest pressings are from 1979, in France, UK, South Africa, Argentina and more. One of them is Delphine 700 036.

How do I tell if my copy of Rêveries is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 700 036, Iv 2005, SKL 5332, ML 4308) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 12 700036 A and 827 700036 B. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Rêveries 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.
