How many vinyl pressings of Barry Lyndon are there?

When was Barry Lyndon first released on vinyl?

The earliest pressings are from 1975, in US, UK, Argentina, Australia and more. One of them is Warner Bros. Records BS 2903.

How do I tell if my copy of Barry Lyndon is a first pressing?

Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use BS 2903, WBC 1301 (BS 2903), K56189, K56189 (BS2903)) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, S BS-2903/PRO#615 41208-2 TML-M /D SX D and S BS 2903/PRO-615-S-41209-1B TML-S B. Later reissues often keep the catalog number but change the label design or the runout codes.

How much is Barry Lyndon 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.
