63 vinyl pressings of Le Paris De... are listed here, from 16 countries, released between 1964 and 1984.
The earliest pressings are from 1964, in France, US, Canada, Italy and more. One of them is CBS 72 207, released April 1964.
Check the catalog number on the label (first-year pressings use 72 207, 72207, S 72 207, CS 9034) and the codes etched in the runout groove, then compare them with the pressings listed above; for example, CBS LPL 690 1Y A1 and CBS LPL 690 2Y A1. 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.
