40 vinyl pressings of The Modern Jazz Quartet At Music Inn — Volume 2 are listed here, from 12 countries, released between 1959 and 1995.
The earliest pressings are from 1959, in US, UK, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Atlantic SD 1299.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SD 1299, 1299, SAH-K 6050, LTZ-K.15173) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, ST-A# 59107C OSS Stereo #0612595 AT and ST-A# 59108B OSS Stereo #0612596 AT. 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.
