55 vinyl pressings of Dance With The Shadows are listed here, from 13 countries, released between 1964 and 1970.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in UK, Australia, Denmark, France and more. One of them is Columbia SCX 3511.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SCX 3511, 33SX 1619, 33-OSX-1619, SCXO 3511) 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.
