18 vinyl pressings of Scrooged - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack are listed here, from 12 countries, released between 1988 and 2019.
The earliest pressings are from 1988, in US, UK, Europe, Australia and more. One of them is A&M Records SP 3921.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use SP 3921, AMA 3921, 393 921-1, TVL 93291) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, SP-03921-A C-2 G1 AA and SP-03921-B C-1 G1 AA. 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.
