What separates the pressings

Oldest we track, 2003First released 1958; our table starts at 2003 (Get Back, Italy). A copy older than 2003 predates everything here. Treat it as the find.
Collector variants2003 Italy: Limited Edition, 180 Gram; 2015 US: Limited Edition, Reissue, Gold; 2016 Europe: Limited Edition, Reissue. Short runs like these often bring more than a standard early copy.
Reissues, 2014+4 pressings. Easy to find, priced as listening copies.

How to identify your copy

Three checks, in the order worth doing them.

  1. 1

    Match the catalog number. It is printed on the spine and the record label. Check it together with the country against the pressings table above: the same number can appear in more than one country.

  2. 2

    Read the runout. The code etched in the dead wax near the label names the exact pressing. On the 2003 Italy pressing it reads “54107E1/A www.gzvinyl.com” on side one and “54107E2/A” on side two. Jackets get swapped over the decades; the runout does not.

  3. 3

    Grade the condition. The same pressing can be worth several times more in near mint than in VG. Grade the vinyl and the sleeve separately — our grading guide shows the standard scale.

A 1958 jacket with a later disc inside is a reissue in an original sleeve. Judge the pressing by the runout etching and the label, never by the cover.

Questions

Which pressing of Sings The Songs That Made Him Famous is worth the most?

Original 1958 pressings lead; they predate everything in our table, and that scarcity is the point. Among tracked copies, the 2003 pressings come first. Scarcer variants (the 2003 “Limited Edition, 180 Gram” and the 2015 “Limited Edition, Reissue, Gold”) can beat an ordinary early copy. After that it is all condition: the gap between near mint and VG is usually larger than the gap between pressings.

How do I tell which pressing I have?

Match the catalog number on the spine and label against the table above, check the country, then read the etched code in the runout groove. On the 2003 Italy pressing the runout reads “54107E1/A www.gzvinyl.com”. A period jacket with a later disc inside is still a reissue.

How much is Sings The Songs That Made Him Famous worth today?
