Questions

How many vinyl pressings of Hollywood Dream are there?

When was Hollywood Dream first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1970, in UK, US, Australia, Canada and more. One of them is Track Record 2406 003, released December 1970.

How do I tell if my copy of Hollywood Dream is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 2406 003, SD 8264, 2480 009, 2491 543) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, 2406 003 A ∇ 1 11 1 and 2406 003 B ∇ 1 11 2. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Hollywood Dream 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.
