Vinyl pressings
by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart · 1964
Die Zauberflöte Highlights was first pressed on vinyl in 1964. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.
2 pressings came out in 1964, the album's first year. Compare the label and catalog number on your copy, then the codes etched or stamped in the runout groove (the dead wax around the label): they are the surest sign of an early pressing.
Not sure how to read the runout? See matrix numbers, runout and dead wax and how to tell a first pressing.
By decade, oldest first. Open a pressing for its full label, barcode and runout details.

27 vinyl pressings of Die Zauberflöte Highlights are listed here, from 10 countries, released between 1964 and 1984.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in UK. One of them is His Master's Voice ALP 2314.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use ALP 2314, ASD 2314) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above. 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.
