Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Sylvie are there?

21 vinyl pressings of Sylvie are listed here, from 5 countries, released between 1962 and 2021.

When was Sylvie first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1962, in France, Italy. One of them is RCA Victor 440.103, released December 1962.

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

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 440.103, 430 103 S, LPM 10127) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 2 R 63 S 666 R1 and 2 R 63 S 667 R1. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Sylvie 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.
