55 vinyl pressings of Live At Kelvin Hall are listed here, from 15 countries, released between 1967 and 2004.
The earliest pressings are from 1967, in Canada, US, Australia, France and more. One of them is Pye Records NPL 30107.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use NPL 30107, NSPL 30107, RS 6260, R 6260) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. 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.
