Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Dreamy are there?

When was Dreamy first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1960, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Roulette R 52046.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use R 52046, SR 52046, SF-9034, 33SX 1252) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 4C RLP 159-A1 and 4C RLP 159-B2. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Dreamy 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.
