What separates the pressings

Originals, 19849 first-year pressings (US, UK, Europe, France and 3 more); any of them is an original. Runout on the US copy starts “ST-1-12330”.
Collector variants1984 France: Blue; 1984 UK: Test Pressing, White Label; 1984 UK: Black Labels Silver Text. Short runs like these often bring more than a standard early copy.
Reissues, 2015Easy to find, priced as a listening copy.

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 1984 US pressing it reads “ST-1-12330” on side one and “ST-2-12330” 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 1984 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 Private Dancer is worth the most?

The 1984 originals lead. Scarcer variants (the 1984 “Blue” and the 1984 “Test Pressing, White Label”) 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 if I have a 1984 original?

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 1984 US pressing the runout reads “ST-1-12330”. A period jacket with a later disc inside is still a reissue.
