11 vinyl pressings of Playboy / All The Love I've Got are listed here, from 2 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1962, in US, Canada. One of them is Tamla T 54060, released April 9, 1962.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use T 54060, TAMLA 54060, Tamla 54060, TM.7011) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, H-1027 Bell Sound ARP AudioMatrix and BM 027303 Bell Sound ARP AudioMatrix. 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.
