by Yazoo · 1983
You And Me Both was first pressed on vinyl in 1983. Every vinyl pressing is listed below with its label, catalog number and runout codes, so you can tell an original from a reissue.
46 pressings came out in 1983, the album's first year, in 26 countries. 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.

69 vinyl pressings of You And Me Both are listed here, from 30 countries, released between 1983 and 2019.
The earliest pressings are from 1983, in UK, US, Germany, Greece and more. One of them is Mute STUMM 12, released July 4, 1983.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use STUMM 12, 1-23903, INT 146.806, 4506) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, STUMM 12 A2 (R) GG2 TOWN HOUSE and STUMM 12 B2 (R) GG2 TOWN HOUSE. 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.
