20 vinyl pressings of Will Glahé In Bavaria are listed here, from 9 countries, released between 1965 and 1987.
The earliest pressings are from 1965, in UK & Europe, Australia, Belgium, New Zealand and more. One of them is Decca PFS 4071.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use PFS 4071, SKLA 7603, PFSM.34071) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, STE LPD 011274 and STE LPD 011275. 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.
