74 vinyl pressings of A Christmas Gift For You From Philles Records are listed here, from 13 countries, released between 1963 and 2023.
The earliest pressings are from 1963, in US, UK, Canada. One of them is Philles Records PHLP 4005, released November 22, 1963.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PHLP 4005, PHLP-4005, HA-U 8141) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, PHLP-4005-1A △6070 MR and PHLP-4005-2A △6070-X MR. 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.
