Questions
How many vinyl pressings of Birthday are there?

When was Birthday first released on vinyl?
The earliest pressings are from 1969, in UK, US, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is CBS S 63682.
How do I tell if my copy of Birthday is a first pressing?
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use S 63682, 63682, BN 26529, SBP 233990) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S 63682 A2 and SBPG-63682-B1. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.
How much is Birthday 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.
