14 vinyl pressings of Rev It Up are listed here, from 14 countries.
The earliest pressings are from 1990, in UK, South Korea, Argentina, Brazil and more. One of them is EMI USA MTL 1054.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use MTL 1054, EKPL-0108 / E1-92923, 58.655, 727929231) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, MTL 1054 A-1-1-1 D and MTL 1054 B-2U-1-1 D. 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.
