53 vinyl pressings of Getz / Gilberto #2 are listed here, from 15 countries, released between 1966 and 2023.
The earliest pressings are from 1966, in US, UK, Australia, Brazil and more. One of them is Verve Records V6-8623.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use V6-8623, V/8623, V-8623, VLP 9132) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, V6-8623 65VGS-536 5-1 VAN GELDER and V6-8623 65VGS 537 VAN GELDER. 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.
